The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) is offered to support projects addressing critical needs within the library and archives fields. This grant aims to advance professional practices and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals are expected to generate impactful results, including new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, or alliances. These outcomes must be widely usable, adaptable, scalable, or replicable to extend and leverage federal investment benefits. The application process comprises two phases: initially, all applicants submit preliminary proposals. Only selected candidates will subsequently be invited to submit full proposals for final funding consideration.
