CASL is happy to share that our $500 Diverse Book Grant Applications are open!!
Need help developing a diverse collection? Haven't had a book budget or received NEW district provided books in over three years? Does CASL have a grant for you!
CASL members who have had a ZERO book budget or received NEW district provided books for the past three years can apply for a $500 grant to purchase diverse books for your collection. Grant recipients will be paired with a CASL board member to aid them in selecting new titles to diversify their collection. Processing materials can be provided if needed.
CASL has developed grade level book lists or you can work with a CASL mentor to develop a $500 book order of your own!
Applications close February 13th and winners will be notified by March 1st.
Please feel free to include any questions or comments at the bottom of your application.
