Grants for Nebraska Librarians to Attend ARSL 2013 Conference
Continuing Education and Training Grantto attendthe Association of Rural and Small Libraries Conference, September 25-28, 2013 in Omaha
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 (NLC) will be targeting all of the funds available this year for Continuing Education and Training Grants toward grants to Nebraska public library staffers to attend the ARSL Conference. We hope to send about 35 to 40 Nebraska librarians to the Conference.
