Greetings!

I wanted to pass along this opportunity:

Public and tribal libraries are invited to apply for NASA@ My Library<http://www.ala.org/tools/programming/nasalibraries>, a STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) education initiative that will increase and enhance STEAM learning opportunities for library patrons throughout the nation, including geographic areas and populations currently underrepresented in STEAM education.
 
60 public and tribal libraries in the U.S. will be selected through a competitive application process to become NASA@ My Library Partners.  
 
Applications will be accepted from May 17 to July 21. View the project guidelines and apply online.<http://www.ala.org/tools/programming/nasalibraries/guidelines> ALA members and nonmembers are encouraged to apply. 
 
NASA@ My Library Partners will receive training and resources to implement NASA events and programming, access to a university subject matter expert (SME) to support patron engagement, and a $1,600 programming stipend to purchase materials for NASA STEAM activities and/or support presentations by local NASA-funded SMEs.
 
This opportunity is open to public and tribal libraries in the U.S. Priority consideration will be given to libraries in communities with above average populations of demographics underrepresented in STEM education and professions. For more details on priority consideration and eligibility, visit the project guidelines<http://www.ala.org/tools/programming/nasalibraries/guidelines#Eligibility>.
 
The project is offered by the National Center for Interactive Learning (NCIL) at the Space Science Institute (SSI) in partnership with the American Library Association (ALA) Public Programs Office, Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) and Education Development Center (EDC). Support comes from NASA's Science Mission Directorate as part of its Science Activation program<https://science.nasa.gov/learners>.
