Think ahead and consider applying for the $3,000 Scholastic Library Publishing National Library Week Grant, which will be awarded to a library for the best public awareness campaign incorporating the 2009 National Library Week theme, “Worlds connect @ your library®.” This year’s application deadline is October 17, 2008 and National Library Week is April 12-18, 2009. Visit http://ala.org/ala/pressreleases2008/june2008/2009NLWgrant.cfm for details and applications. While the campaign is obviously open for the entire library, this theme is a great one for youth services.
