At this year's AGM, SLIC Chair Fiona McLeod MSP announced the re-launch of the Innovation and Development Fund (IDF) for 2013/14.
The IDF was introduced to offer Scottish library services support for creative service development and to encourage experimental approaches to service delivery.
This year, a total fund of £40,000 is available for innovative projects that support SLIC's four strategic objectives: quality standards and evaluation; innovation and service development; co-ordination, collaboration and co-operation; and workforce development.
Applications will be accepted from Friday 13th December 2013 until 5pm on Monday 3rd February 2014. For more information and to apply for funding, please download the application pack from the SLIC website http://www.scottishlibraries.org/news/.
Please note that applications may only be led by SLIC members, excluding public library services eligible for Public Library Improvement Fund awards. Non-members and public libraries may participate in a joint bid led by an appropriate SLIC member.
