<p class="MsoNormal">Is anyone doing a small grant program where libraries select from a list of programs with set activities, a list of allowable purchases for that activity and set outcomes? Kind of a program in a box grant? If you do, I am interested in
what programs you selected and especially the purchasing list.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
I’m trying to restart our small grant program without having to review 100/150 applications that are all over the place in terms of allowable activities or purchases.
