Criticas has announced that WebJunction is offering scholarships to its Spanish Language Outreach workshops to be held during ALA’s Washington, D.C. meeting June 21-27, 2007.
Former workshop participants are eligible; the winner will present a poster on a program that he/she has implemented successfully after attending a previous workshop.
Says workshop coordinator Laura Staley, “Our goals for the scholarship are to both recognize the outreach efforts of our workshop participants and to inspire other libraries to reach out to their Spanish-speaking communities.” Applications are due April 9.
Discrimination Against the Rest?
Sadly non-Spanish programs never gets funded or the funding is never publicized.
But then again believers of an open boarder with Mexico like it that way.
