Subject: [aladnow] WNBA/Heidbreder Grant for Librarians

DON'T MISS THE DEADLINE!
Publishing Grant for Librarians is Available
 
The Women's National Book Association sponsors the WNBA/Ann Heidbreder
Eastman Grant, which is available for librarians who are interested in
learning about the relationship between the library and publishing
professions.
 
The WNBA offers a grant of up to $750 for a librarian to take a course
or participate in an institute devoted to aspects of publishing as a
profession.  The grant may also provide reimbursement for such study
completed within the past year.
 
The grant honors Ann Heidbreder Eastman, who was an active and prominent
member of both the WNBA and the American Library Association (ALA).  The
grant represents Ann's commitment to education about publishing as well
as her support for communication between librarians and publishers.
 
Librarians holding a master's degree in library science or its
equivalent and having at least two years of post-master's work
experience in a library may apply.  The primary criterion will be the
likelihood of career benefit to the person taking the course.
 
Applications must be received by November 1, 2006.
