Funding & CE Opportunity for Tribal, Rural, & Small Library Staff

Now through Sept. 1st, tribal, small and rural library staff can apply to be a part of a cohort of learners and do-ers who will create college and career readiness (CCR) services for the middle schoolers in their community.  Successful applicants will receive a wide variety of support, including access to mentors, a stipend to purchase CCR materials, and funds to travel to Denver, CO, Feb. 8 – 9, 2018 for orientation, as well as to another conference of their choice. Cohort members will work online throughout 2018 to develop, implement and evaluate a CCR service with a partner in their community.  Learn more and apply at www.ala.org/yalsa/future-ready-library
