 We want to make the California MCN members aware of a competitive grant
 opportunity for all California libraries with special collections, including
 public, academic and ones in museums. It is named the Local History Digital
 Resources Project (LHDRP) and makes it easy to get a library?s cultural
 heritage materials online.

 If their library is awarded this LSTA grant, it will receive funding to
 scan 200 items, as well as free training on copyright, metadata, and
 CONTENTdm. Their images will have great visibility when made freely
 available on the Online Archive of California and Calisphere. And their
 community will value the service they provide in collecting and preserving
 its history!

 Share your collections and build support with LHDRP

 The LHDRP application process is short and painless. Just tell us what you
 want to digitize and its relevance to California history.

 The application materials for LHDRP 2011-12 is available on the CSL LSTA
 application page: http://www.library.ca.gov/grants/lsta/apply.html

 The due date is April 1st

 You may find a flyer, which we hope you will share with all who might be
 interested. here
