2024 Rob-See-Co Rural Library Grant Announced

Rob-See-Co is excited to announce the second year of the Agnes Robinson Rural Library Grant program. The overwhelming response to the program in 2023 underscores the critical need for funding in rural libraries, prompting Rob-See-Co to establish it as an annual initiative. The grant’s namesake and Rob Robinson’s grandmother, Agnes Robinson, was a dedicated supporter of the Waterloo, Nebraska rural library and rural libraries in general.

Rural libraries in our Rob-See-Co footprint (states of CO, IA, IL, IN, KS, MD, MI, MN, ND, NE, OH, OK, PA, SD, TX, and WI) will be emailed a letter with instructions and guidelines for applying for this year’s grant dollars. This year, the grant application is online—aiming to make the process easier and more efficient.

Applications will be due June 30th, 2024 and recipients will be announced October 1, 2024. To read the full press release for this year’s program, click here.
