I learned about this through the Library Grants blog<http://librarygrants.blogspot.com/> maintained by Stephanie Gerding and Pam MacKellar. They wrote Winning Grants: A How-To-Do-It Manual for Librarians<https://ccrls.ent.sirsi.net/client/en_US/oslpublic/search/detailnonmodal/ent:$002f$002fSD_ILS$002f0$002fSD_ILS:1347249/one?qu=Winning+Grants%3A+A+How-To-Do-It+Manual+for+Librarians>, which is available to borrow from the State Library's LIS Collection<https://www.oregon.gov/Library/libraries/Pages/LIS-Collection.aspx>. You can subscribe to the blog or follow the site on Twitter to receive info about grant and scholarship opportunities.

Thanks,
