Inspiration Grants

Purpose: The California State Library’s 2021-2022 Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA)-funded Inspiration Grants opportunity will provide support to libraries throughout California interested in implementing a project outside of other State Library opportunities. The California State Library is pleased to offer Inspiration Grants. The Inspiration Grants opportunity provides Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funding for California public libraries that are inspired to implement projects outside of the State Library’s other funding opportunities. Inspiration Grants provide funding for projects that may not fit within the bounds of the other grants offered by the State Library and/or for ideas that are generated outside of other funding opportunity application timeframes. More information about this opportunity can be found at: https://www.library.ca.gov/grants/inspiration/ Eligible Applicants: The Inspiration Grants opportunity is open to California libraries. Eligible Geographies: Grant is limited to California. Matching Funding: Applicants are expected to contribute a local match to the grant funds in the form of a cash match and/or in-kind contributions. A match is expected, but no minimum amount is required.
