APPLICANTS SOUGHT FOR 3M/NMRT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT GRANT Deadline: December 15, 2003 Have you always wanted to attend an ALA Conference, but aren't sure if you can afford it? 3M Library Systems continues its partnership with ALA's New Members Round Table (NMRT) in sponsoring the annual Professional Development Grant program. The grant provides funding to cover the cost of registration fees, airfare, lodging and some incidental expenses for recipients to attend the ALA Annual Conference in Orlando in June 2004. You must be a current member of ALA and NMRT to apply. (NMRT membership is open to people who have been members of ALA for up to ten years.) The application deadline is December 15, 2003. I know that seems like a long time away, but it's not! Send in your application today. The selection of grant recipients will take place at the ALA Midwinter meeting in January 2004. To apply for the grant, go to http://www.ala.org/nmrt. Look for NMRT on the left hand menu. Under that you should see "Apply for Funds". Clicking on that will lead you to a page that lists grants available to NMRT members. The 3M/NMRT Professional Development Grant is first on the list. The application is an online form. If you have any questions please contact Laura Kortz, chair of the committee at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or by phone at 201-200-3473. Thank you. Laura Kortz Virtual Services Librarian Congressman Frank J.
