商品簡介
Landau, a library director, marketer, and manager, provides a guide for grant seekers on the fundamentals of winning library grants. He argues that librarians and library trustees can win grants without the use of outside writers and presents the process as the logical definition of an institution and its needs and marketing those needs to those who can fund them. Focusing on public libraries, he introduces the basic principles of grant writing, typical sources, and how to identify and evaluate opportunities. He discusses the mechanics of organizing an effort, including scope and resource requirements, proposal organization and preparation, and submission and marketing, in addition to post-proposal tips on project start-up, management, and learning from wins and losses. The book is not a comprehensive guide to grant opportunities. Annotation c2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
