[OTTUM Tamara K * SLO]

FY23 LSTA Competitive Grant applications are opening November 1st!
Information on how to apply - including eligibility, requirements, and deadlines - can be found on our LSTA grants guide<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flibguides.osl.state.or.us%2Flstagrants%2Ffy23comp&data=05%7C01%7CTamara.OTTUM%40slo.oregon.gov%7Cc927f0c18dea4c071e2908daa55790b2%7Caa3f6932fa7c47b4a0cea598cad161cf%7C0%7C0%7C638004092777196581%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=NyCbUwnAlVw8hZd37%2B3EX4lbxW0x0f2t5YxH6ICedqo%3D&reserved=0>. If you haven't looked at and/or applied for an LSTA grant recently, we encourage you to take a look! We've been working to make the process easier to understand, more approachable, and more equitable.

New this year:

  *   We ask that projects align with our new LSTA Five-Year Plan 2023-2027<https://www.oregon.gov/library/libraries/Documents/LSTA/2023-2027LSTAFiveYearPlan.pdf>.
  *   We are returning to the single-tier structure (no small/large division) and capping grant requests at $50,000. This is to more broadly distribute funding across the state.
If you are new to LSTA competitive grants and/or have questions about the process, consider attending one of our informational sessions:

  *   Tuesday, October 18, 9-10 a.m.
