Several librarians have asked how much of a local cash match (or in-kind
match) libraries need to include in the New Century Grant applications.
If you are asking for $5,000 in New Century Grant funding, you must match
this with $5,000 in local cash or in-kind contributions (or some combination
thereof).    If you are asking for $2,500 you must match this with $2,500 in
local cash or in-kind contributions (or some combination thereof) etc.  Hope
this helps, Linda
