Good day! Please excuse cross-postings:
"The Rural Library Network is a cradle to career initiative that provides participants the opportunity to grow knowledge via online webinars and training in core principles of place-based work. It also offers a forum to grow relationships and connect with practitioners working in libraries across America's rural communities. Membership in the network is free.
Our monthly webinars, called Conversations for Action, enable members to learn best practices from experts in place based approaches to community change. Each webinar is recorded and made available on this site (see below).
Network members are also eligible to apply to join our Rural Library Fellowship. We are seeking individuals working in rural public libraries who are interested in increasing third-grade reading outcomes. The fellowship offers:
* Professional development to support increasing reading outcomes
* Connection with a peer learning community
* A stipend to offset time, materials or other costs associated with participation
* Full cost scholarship for travel expenses to attend any in-person leadership development opportunities
The Fellowship Application will be available February 1, 2021."
