The Southeast Kansas Library System recognizes that a single digital platform may not work for all library types, but that demand for digital resources continues to grow. To supplement what libraries are able to provide, SEKLS offers these options for the Digital Resources Grant:
Direct Hoopla support paid to Midwest Tape by SEKLS
Digital Book Fund support
Digital resource reimbursement
Eligibility: These grants are available to public and academic libraries.
Funding: As the SEKLS budget allows, funds will be distributed to eligible libraries based on a base amount of $100, with the remaining funds distributed by percentage of population. See below for the chart, updated annually.
Process: The process for receiving funds is determined by the option selected.
Deadline: December 15, 2024 to ensure allocation in 2025.
Questions: Email Sharon Moreland (smoreland@sekls.org) with questions.
