LSTA Planning Grant Information Sessions

Applications for LSTA Planning Grants will be accepted on a rolling basis every two months, with the next deadlines on June 25 and August 27. These six-month planning grants will provide up to $5,000 to assist libraries with planning initiatives to explore new services, assess and address the needs of changing population and patron bases, develop partnerships and collaboration, or write new strategic plans or long-range master plans.

These grants are available to school libraries, principal public libraries, academic libraries, and special libraries.

All potential applicants must attend an information session about the assessment and planning tools available from the CT State Library as well as grant application instructions, regulations, and fiscal management. The next session is scheduled for Wednesday, July 11, 9:30-11:30, Middletown Library Service Center. Register online.

Additional information sessions will be offered bimonthly in the fall and winter. If you would like to host an information session at your library, please contact Maria Bernier, LSTA Coordinator, at maria.bernier@ct.gov or 860-704-2204.
