3M/NMRT Professional Development Grant Applications being accepted now!

APPLICANTS SOUGHT FOR 3M/NMRT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT GRANT
Deadline: December 15, 2009

We are excited to announce that members of ALA's New Members Round Table (NMRT) can apply to receive a grant, sponsored by 3M Library Systems, which will cover expenses to attend the ALA Annual Conference, June 24–30, 2010, in Washington, DC.

Want to read about the ALA experiences of last year's winners? Take
a look at the August 2009 issue of Footnotes at
http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/rts/nmrt/news/footnotes/august_2009/index.cfm. You will see how professionally rewarding attending an ALA
conference can be.

The application form and further information about the grant is
available on the NMRT website at
http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/rts/nmrt/initiatives/applyforfunds/3mawardinformation.cfm. You must be a current member of NMRT in order to
apply. To join NMRT, visit the ALA website at http://www.ala.org and
follow the "Join ALA" link to add to your ALA membership.

Joining NMRT is only $10 for the year, which would make your total ALA membership only $43 for the year. Still a steal!
