Small Grants to Libraries: Souls of a People: Voices’ from Writers Project-Library Outreach Program: On March 25, 2008 the National Endowment for the Humanities announced the availability of funding for the Small Grants to Libraries: Souls of a People: Voices’ from Writers Project-Library Outreach Program (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance number 45.164). The purpose of this program is to enhance and strengthen the national impact of the Spark Media documentary, Soul of a People: Voices from the Writers’ Project.  This film centers on the evolution of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) Writers’ Project—from its obscure bureaucratic origins to its creation of an epic series of travel guides and other works that amounted to a first-ever national biography.  The application deadline is July 11, 2008. Eligible applicants include public, academic and special libraries. To request an application package, visit http://www.neh.gov/grants/guidelines/SGL_Soul_of_a_People.html. For further information, contact Public Programs Office, American Library Association, (312) 280-5045, (312) 280-5759, publicprograms@ala.org.
