[kids-lib] COVID-19 Response grants

[Greta Bergquist]

Apologies if my wording below was misleading – for the COVID-19 response grants, currently libraries who have 5.0 FTE or fewer employees are eligible to apply right now<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/lstagrants/covid19>.

Best,

Greta

Forwarding this because the COVID grant would apply to Bandon since the 6 employees will now apply. Extra money for programming and digital materials perhaps!

Hi everybody,

We made it to Friday! Thank you so much for all your work this week supporting your communities. You are all pivoting so fast to serve in extremely stressful times. Please know your efforts are meaningful and appreciated, no matter how large or small.

Is anyone else reading and re-reading through their bookshelves? I’ve been reading some Elephant and Piggie easy readers over and over because they are short & sweet. Speaking of Elephant and Piggie, did you know that Mo Willems is doing Thank You Thursdays<https://www.kennedy-center.org/education/mo-willems/>? These could be a fun thing to start doing on library social media posts, to thank folks in your community or ask community folks to thank people.

Lastly, if your library has fewer than 6 staff members and is planning on applying for the COVID-19 response grant<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/lstagrants/covid19>, please do so as soon as possible, we have received 45 applications already and this funding is sadly not unlimited. Use the wording from the exact examples on the LibGuide. It is seriously a 3 question application, so do it! ☺ If you have any questions, please let me know!

Best,

Greta
