ALA Diversity Research Grant

The American Library Association's Office for Diversity seeks proposals for its Diversity Research Grant program. Since 2002, the ALA has sponsored the program to address critical gaps in the knowledge of diversity issues within library and information science.

Applicants must be current ALA members, and proposals must address one of three identified topics: upward mobility of library leaders from underrepresented populations; information services and collections for diverse children and young adults; and libraries and the meaning of multiculturalism. Only proposals demonstrating relevance to the 2010 research topics will be considered.

Amount: $2,000

Date due: April 30, 2010
