WINNING GRANTS: A HOW-TO-DO-IT MANUAL FOR LIBRARIANS WITH MULTIMEDIA TUTORIALS AND GRANT DEVELOPMENT TOOLS
By Pamela H. MacKellar and Stephanie K. Gerding
The step-by-step tutorial you need to win grants for your library! Written by two experts who have won millions in grants from an astonishing variety of funding sources, Winning Grants is a combination workbook, how-to-manual, and multimedia workshop.
Now presented in Neal-Schuman’s newly-revised How-To-Do-It series layout, Winning Grants gives you MacKellar and Gerding’s combined decades of successful grant-getting techniques in an accessible design so you can master these complex processes more easily.
This multimedia package features three sections. Part I, “The Grant Process Cycle,” presents the full grant process cycle with MacKeller and Gerding sharing invaluable procedural advice that distinguishes proposals that receive sustained funding. Part II, “Library Grant Success Stories,” showcases real-life success stories that demonstrate the process in practice and provide motivational tips from successful library staff. Part III, “The Winning Grants Multimedia Toolkit and DVD,” includes time-saving tools, such as reusable checklists, worksheets, and templates. All of these tools are both in the book and reproduced as Microsoft Word documents on the multimedia DVD so you can make these templates your own and share them with colleagues. The DVD includes the entire text of successful grant proposals plus ten instructional videos to walk you through each step of the grant process cycle. You can also use these materials for workshops and training.
