<p class="MsoNormal">If you have a Friends of the Library or Library Foundation that is a 501(C)3 or your library is a 501(C)3, then I encourage you to read the following article about the Google Ads Grant program and think about whether or not it could be
a good way to promote your Ready to Read grant-funded projects. This is not an endorsement, use your library’s policies to determine if this program is right for your library.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><a href="http://www.webjunction.org/news/webjunction/google-adwords-for-libraries.html">Free Advertising for Libraries through Google</a></b> Google’s Ad Grants program presents a valuable opportunity for online promotion. Google offers
qualifying non-profit groups, like Friends of the Library or libraries that hold 501(c)(3) status, up to $10,000 per month in advertising budget for free. This article by Trey Gordner explains the Google Ad Grants program, its promotional potential for libraries,
and the application process.<o:p></o:p></p>
