This week each of California’s Congressional Representatives will receive a letter from State Librarian Susan Hildreth outlining LSTA Projects in their districts for 2007 – 2008.
A summary of the grants by district is available at:

The Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) is the only Federal program solely devoted to supporting library services in libraries of all types. Congress and the President authorize its existence and allocate funds annually for its operation. The Act is administered by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (http://www.imls.gov/) in Washington D.C. The Institute makes awards to libraries for the development of library services and to individual Indian tribes and their libraries for special purposes.
