    Hi!

    The LACUNY Professional Development Roundtable is accepting applications for the Spring 2019 LACUNY Professional Development Travel Grant:

    • THREE grants of up to $600 each will be awarded to LACUNY members with Full Membership for the purpose of attending library-related conferences, meetings, or events that take place during Spring 2019 or after.
    • Proposals will be blind-reviewed.
    • This is not a PSC-CUNY Research Awards travel grant. It is separate from any funds which may be available through a particular college or department for faculty travel—the availability of such funds plays no role in the roundtable\’s decision-making.
    • Deadline for submission is March 15, 2019 (11:59 PM EST).
    • Please carefully read the Grant Award Guidelines below before applying as they have changed.
