Good morning! Please excuse cross-postings: Maine public libraries are invited to join Lisa Shaw, Deb Clark, and Marijke Visser in an informational Zoom meeting to discuss the ARPA Remote Work through Libraries Grants. We will talk about the two types of grant applications we will be using for this process as well as fielding questions from you about the process and potentially eligible projects. This session will be offered twice, and please note that even though the calendar says “In-Person,” these will be Zoom meetings. You will need to register for the session so that a Zoom link can be sent to you.
