Description
The Texas State Library and Archives Commission’s Special Projects Grant supports programs that expand library services to include all members of a library’s community. Its focus is on developing programs for populations with special needs and for people who have difficulty using the library. The program helps libraries address service needs among community members who may not be well served by existing programs.
Community engagement and collaboration with other community organizations are strongly encouraged. Rather than concentrating on a particular subject or library activity, the grant centers on inclusive services designed around the needs of people who face barriers to using the library.
