The Capital District Library Council (CDLC) is proud to support our member institutions through a variety of grant opportunities aimed at strengthening library services across the region. Whether you're looking to expand your collections, enhance professional development, invest in new technology and equipment, or collaborate with community partners, CDLC’s grant programs are designed to help bring your ideas to life.
We currently offer two grants- the Regional Collection Grant and the Technology and Equipment Grant. Two additional grants we hope to have ready soon include the Professional Development Grant and the Action and Engagement Grant.
Each grant opportunity includes an overview, application form, eligibility guidelines, and examples of fundable activities to help you get started. Applications are reviewed through a structured process, and awarded funds aim to foster innovation, accessibility, and collaboration throughout the CDLC membership.
Explore each grant to learn more and see how your library or organization can benefit.
