Do you have an idea or project you’ve been waiting to implement that: Addresses community needs and aligns with community aspirations? Supports improvement, innovation, and experimentation in library services? Can be completed by June 30, 2024? If so, then this opportunity might be for you! Eligible Applicants: The Inspiration Grants opportunity is open to California libraries. Eligible Geographies: The Inspiration Grants opportunity is open to libraries in the state of California.
