LSTA Grant Workshop Jennifer Peacock, Administrative Services Bureau Director David Collins, Grant Programs Director Mississippi Library Commission October 5, 2016

Grants to States PROGRAM The Grants to States program is the largest source of federal funding support for library services in the U.S. using a population based formula, more than $150 million is distributed among the State Library Administrative Agencies every year. 1956: Congress passed the Library Services Act (LSA), authorizing $7.5 million annually for 5 years for the extension and improvement of public library service in rural areas. 1962: LSA was reauthorized as the Library Services and Construction Act (LSCA), removing restrictions that limited funding to rural libraries and adding Title II, which contained funds for remodeling or construction of library buildings. 1996: Congress shifted LSTA to the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) as Subchapter II of the Museum and Library Services Act, ending federal funding for library construction and replacing it with a focus on new information technologies.

In order to receive these funds: MLC must submit a plan that details library services goals for a five-year period. MLC must conduct a five-year evaluation of library services based on that plan. MLC must meet a 34% cash match and meet MOE. 5 year plan coming up this year. Focus groups throughout the state. Opportunity for you to provide your thoughts, suggestions, comments.

Activity Intent Mode Format Quantity Partner Beneficiaries Locale Each grant you write is your project. -Choose one intent (only one!) -You can choose more than one activity -You may or may not have the mode/format/quantity, etc. Choose these depending on what is in your project.

Intent An objective or expected result in a project. *See Key Terminology page.

Intent Examples from last grant period This project consisted of replacing four outdated patron computers located at the library with new computers. The library was using O/S Windows XP. These outdated computers were a security risk and inefficient with patrons needs. Library needed these computers to allow patrons internet access for finding employment and research purposes. This project was used to create educational resource collections in 3 branches for parents who lack access to adequate developmental literature and programming. These collections will provide families with tools to scaffold their children’s learning and development.

Activities Action(s) through which the intent of a project is accomplished. Instruction - Involves an interaction for knowledge or skill transfer. Content - Involves the acquisition, development, or transfer of information. Planning/Evaluation - Involves design, development, or assessment of operations, services, or resources. Procurement - Involves purchasing facilities, equipment/supplies, hardware/software, or other materials (not content) that support general library infrastructure.

Modes How the activity is delivered, created or experienced.
