Description
This funding opportunity, administered by the Idaho Commission for Libraries (ICfL) and supported by the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), provides competitive grants to Idaho’s public, tribal, and special libraries. The grant is designed to help libraries address identified community needs by enhancing their services, programs, and collections, particularly those with a strong educational focus. Projects must align with the Idaho LSTA Five-Year State Plan and should support library initiatives that exceed the scope of existing local budgets, without supplanting current funding.
