4. OFFICE OF INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS GRANTS FOR IU LIBRARIES & LIBRARIANS
1. International Opportunities for Libraries and Librarians
To provide support for librarians from any IU campus for a range of projects
and activities that are aimed at developing the international collections of
their libraries or enhancing their ability to take advantage of international
opportunities regarding library development. Funds are available for
proposals such as: international travel to specific world areas for print and
media acquisitions; domestic or international travel to examine special
collections that might enhance the university's holdings, or to collaborate
with colleagues at other institutions on projects with an international focus; domestic or international travel to special book or media fairs featuring international content; visits to funding agencies in the U.S. or abroad to identify and coordinate sup
port for special or unique library projects with an international focus. One-time funding is also available to enhance access to IU's international collections and resources.
Deadline: March 15, 1997. Awards: From $500 to $3,000.
2. Hewlett Library Acquisition Grants (for non-Bloomington campuses)
As in preceding years, these grants are competitive among all IU campuses
other than Bloomington. They are intended to assist in purchasing library
materials on international studies which would be difficult or impossible to
acquire in the absence of such funding. Application consists of a letter
describing the kinds of books and materials to be acquired under the grant,
and justification for these materials. We do not necessarily need a detailed
list and prices of books, but do request some detail on the kinds of materials desired (print vs. other), their area range, and how they enhance current collections or new international areas to support the teaching and research interests of the campus. P
roposals from each campus will be enhanced if the campus is able to provide matching funds for these acquisitions.
Deadline: April 15, 1997. Award:up to $2,000 on average.
