MAKING EFFECTIVE APPLICATIONS TO FUNDING BODIES: TWO BRITISH LIBRARY
WORKSHOPS
These one-day workshops, organised under the auspices of the British
Library's Co-operation and Partnership Programme, are intended for
those wishing to know more about how to apply for funds from the
various funding bodies and sources available.
The workshops will be run by Roy Sully who, as a qualified librarian
and experienced fundraiser, was formerly Head of Development Office at
the British Library. Roy is also currently revising "A guide to
additional sources of funding and revenue for libraries and archives".
The courses will equip participants with the knowledge and confidence
to make effective funding applications, not only to the British
Library but also to other funding organisations. The workshops will
be relevant to a wide range of institutions, not just to those working
in libraries, although where possible examples will be drawn from the
library and archive world to illustrate the principles being taught.
The workshops will include the following:
* principles of good fund-raising
* project definition
* project management
* developing an effective case
* project costing and budget control
* working with a partner organisation
* research and writing skills
* acknowledging donors
* project monitoring
There will be two workshops:
at The British Library, 96 Euston Road, London on Friday 8th October
at Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield, on Friday 15th October
Each workshop will begin at 10.15am (registration) and finish by
4.00pm. There will be no charge for attendance. Because places are
limited, and demand anticipated to be high, there will be a maximum of
2 places allowed per institution. Lunch/tea/coffee
will be provided. Once a place has been allocated to you, please let
us know as soon as possible if you are unable to attend.
Please fill in and return the form below to: Colin Day, Co-operation
and Partnership Programme, Fourth Floor, The British Library, 96
Euston Road, London NW1 2DB by 24th September, 1999. (Or email
