After we advocate for library construction aid at the end of the month, let’s learn how to get the best bang for the buck.

The New York State Division of Library Development is hosting an upcoming webinar on State Aid for Library Construction : What It Is and How To Apply.

The webinar is scheduled for Tuesday March 13, from 10:00 – 11:30 am.

Does your library need to upgrade its broadband service? Add programming space? Expand its teen room? Improve ADA access? This workshop will walk you through the application process on how to receive construction aid from the State, available to public libraries and library systems. Learn what constitutes an eligible project and what documents are necessary to include with your application. Avoid pitfalls that can delay or disqualify an application. Learn how to amend a project once it has begun.
