$5,000 National Library Week grant available; 2005 theme is "Something for everyone @ your library"

U.S. libraries of all types are invited to apply for the 2005 Scholastic Library/Grolier National Library Week Grant. The grant will award $5,000 to a single library for the best public awareness campaign during National Library Week (April 10-16, 2005) that uses the National Library Week 2005 theme of "Something for everyone @ your library."

The grant is sponsored by Scholastic Library Publishing and its publishing imprint Grolier and is administered by the Public Awareness Committee of the American Library Association (ALA). This year's application deadline is October 18, 2004.

All proposals must use the "Something for everyone @ your library" theme, which incorporates The Campaign for America's Libraries' @ your library brand, on any and all promotional and publicity material supporting the National Library Week activities. The theme was chosen by the ALA's National Library Week Subcommittee for its broad appeal and ability to be adapted by different libraries. Guidelines for using the @ your library brand are available on the campaign Web site at www.ala.org/@yourlibrary under the "Download logos" section.

A grant application form and guidelines are available on The Campaign for America's Libraries Web site at www.ala.org/@yourlibrary/nlwgrant . Information also is available from the ALA Public Information Office. Telephone: 800-545-2433, ext. 4020. E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

The winner will be notified the first week in January and announced at the 2005 ALA Midwinter Meeting in Boston. Information on last year's winner, the St. Mary Parish Library in Franklin, La., and the winning application can be viewed at www.ala.org/ala/pr2004/prjan2004/stmaryparish.htm .
