Hi folks,

See below for a grant opportunity for the Institute of Museum and Library Services for a Native American Library Services Enhancement Grants. You can use the grants for a wide variety of projects and ask for much more funding than the Basic Grants. For instance, the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon received an enhancement grant<https://www.imls.gov/grants/awarded/nae-252444-ols-22> in 2022 to publish children's books about their Tribe.

Cheers!
