The LIANZA and SLANZA Tertiary Grants project are excited to announce the opening of the tertiary grants for new library and information qualifications.
These grants will provide people working in, or new to the library and information sector, with funding towards the costs of a library and information sector qualification.
This is an exciting opportunity for the sector. Grants of up to $10,000 are available. The first funding round opens on March 1 and closes on 31 March. Another funding round will be held in October.
We encourage you to share the information on these grants with staff, peers and with your communities.
