Illinois State Library is in the running for a 2016 IMLS autism education grant!!
From IMLS:
“…It gives me great pleasure to notify you that the proposal submitted by Illinois State Library, “Targeting Autism: A Comprehensive Training and Education Program for Librarians,” has been selected to advance to the second phase of review for the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian (LB21) Program. As you know, LB21 supports professional development, graduate education and continuing education to help libraries and archives develop the human capital capacity they need to meet the changing learning and information needs of the American public….”
The second phase of this process is a full proposal to be submitted January 15, 2016.
There will be a project proposal update as part of the next Targeting Autism Forum on March 10-11, 2016.
