Pacific Library Partnership , <br /> Pacific Library Partnership <br /> FY 2023-24 Innovation and Technology Grant Program <br /> Background <br /> Each fiscal year through a competitive process, the Pacific Library Partnership awards grants to <br /> PLP libraries to support innovation, technology and access. Grants are typically awarded in two <br /> categories: Innovation and Technology Opportunity Grants, and the Grant Replication Program. <br /> The purpose of the grants is to support a new idea, program or vision, which can then be <br /> replicated by other libraries. <br /> For FY 2023-24, the grant amounts awarded may vary, with a maximum award of$12,000. The <br /> total amount of available funds is $120,000. <br /> Guidelines for Award <br /> 1. Both PLP academic and public libraries are eligible to apply for the grant. <br /> 2. A library may submit more than one application, but awards will be limited to one <br /> project per organization per fiscal year. <br /> 3. All applications must be reviewed and signed by the submitting organization's Library <br /> Director. <br /> 4. A panel of reviewers outside of PLP will review all applications and rank them. Awards <br /> will be based on these recommendations. The PLP CEO and Executive Committee may <br /> work with libraries to modify their applications, and they will make the final award <br /> determinations. <br /> 5. Only projects that have a timeline of completion within the fiscal year applied will be <br /> considered. <br /> 6. All funds awarded must be expended by June 30 of the fiscal year awarded. Should the <br /> library experience an unforeseen circumstance which may require additional time, they <br /> may contact PLP administration to discuss an extension. <br /> 7. Any unspent funds at the completion of the project must be returned to PLP. <br /> 8. Successful awardees will be asked to complete a final report at the conclusion of the <br /> grant cycle and must be willing to share their experience with other PLP libraries at <br /> appropriate meetings and conferences. <br /> Funding Limits <br /> Each grant application may not exceed $12,000. <br /> 32 West 25th Avenue,Suite 201 1 San Mateo,CA 94403-2265 1 P:(650)349-5538 I F:(650)349-5089 I Website:www.plpinfo.org <br />
