On “Free Money”

I found a great post today about “free grant money,”  written by a fellow Grant Resource Center person in Ohio.  Please read it!   I cannot tell you how often I am forced to break the “free grant money” myths, and how frustrating it is when people don’t believe me, or think that surely I must be hiding something.

A Break

I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be off on maternity leave for eight weeks, beginning next week.  However, I will be checking email the entire time, so please feel free to drop me a line if you have any questions or need anything at all during that time.  My email address is katebfpl at gmail dot com.  You can also call the library with any questions at 814-432-5062, and they will be able to pass messages along to me.  See you around the holidays!
