The Medical Library Association (MLA) offers the Mary K. Haver Consumer Health Professional Development Grant to support educational activities for consumer health librarians. Supported activities include attending conferences, obtaining training, and taking continuing education classes. The grant focuses on professional learning rather than a specified research project or demonstration initiative.
The opportunity is part of MLA’s grants, scholarships, and fellowships offerings. Its scope centers on consumer health librarians seeking educational opportunities, without naming a particular conference, training provider, continuing education course, or subject within consumer health. MLA considers its funding opportunities annually and makes awards only when applicants clearly meet or exceed the requirements.
