Nebraska public librarians have a terrific opportunity to attend a national professional conference this fall–right in their own backyard! Because we think this is such a great opportunity, the Nebraska Library Commission is offering grants to Nebraska public library staffers to attend the Association for Rural and Small Libraries Conference, September 25-28 in Omaha. The grants will cover virtually all the expenses of attending the conference—registration, mileage, lodging, and meals.

Grant applications are due by July 3 July 12, and we’ll let you know by July 19 if you’ve received a grant, so you’ll have plenty of time to plan. Apply as soon as you can at: http://nlc.nebraska.gov/grants/ce/.

If you have any questions, please contact Laura Johnson 800-307-2665, 402-471-2694.
