Winter 2005 Update

Community Collaboration Grants Launched

The Partnership for a Nation of Learners Community Collaboration Grant applications are due March 1, 2005, and are available at www.partnershipforlearners.org. Partnership for a Nation of Learners (PNL) is a joint funding initiative of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS).

The program funds ongoing or new collaborative projects among museums, libraries, and public broadcasting licensees that are designed to:

  • address community civic and educational needs;
  • increase the organizations' capacity to serve as effective venues and resources for learning; or
  • enhance infrastructure and technology to serve audiences more effectively.

Grants will be made to collaborative projects that involve at least one museum and/or library and at least one public radio or television licensee. Applications involving a collaboration among all three types of institutions are encouraged but not required.
