[TL-Directors] Good news-LSTA 25 partial award

[CORNELISEN Wendy * SLO]

Yesterday the State Library of Oregon received a notification from IMLS about the 2025 LSTA grant award, providing authorization for 50% of the funds, or $1.3 million.

The message did not indicate that this will be the only authorization, but this is a step forward to that full $2.6 million LSTA grant award for spending in FY2026.

The State Library is still waiting for a drawdown of funds for LSTA 2024– that request was submitted 4/8/2025. We still have access to the IMLS federal payment system.

We’re also still waiting for a ruling from last week’s hearing. You can follow along here: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69844582/state-of-rhode-island-v-trump/


Please let me know if you have any questions.


Thanks,



Wendy
