LIBRARIES THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE

NEA Today, Feb 2006

Have you and your library created initiatives that make you indispensable to your school? Do you significantly impact the students you serve?

The Giant Step program from Thomson Gale and Library School Journal recognizes outstanding school and public libraries that make significant improvements or create innovations in programs or services that have a positive impact on student development and learning.

The maximum award is $10,000, and the winning library (or libraries) will be honored during a celebration at the American Library Association's annual conference. School library media centers in the United States and Canada are eligible to apply (either individually or as a district-wide program).

Go to www.galeschools.com/grant_goldmine/giant_award/about_giant.htm for information and an application. The deadline for entries is February 15, 2006.
