<p class="MsoNormal">Hi tribal library folks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I just really wanted to encourage any of you who are interested to apply for one of these grants. This is our regular, annual grant process. Your tribe doesn’t necessarily have to have a library per se to apply! We welcome any projects
from any part of the tribes that could generally fit under the category of “library and information services”, whether that be supporting education, cultural programs and services, digital equity projects, and more.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are more details on the linked website and the <a href="https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/ld.php?content_id=68685017">
grant packet</a>. If you have ideas you want to run by someone, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Tamara and/or me.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers!<o:p></o:p></p>
