The CIRLA Fellows Program is a collaboration between
the CIRLA member libraries and the Association
of Research Libraries. Partial funding is made possible through
a new grant opportunity from IMLS, the Institute
of Museum and Library Services. The grant category, Librarians
for the 21st Century, awarded nearly $10 million in inaugural
grants to 27 libraries and library schools to address the increasing
demand for librarians, and the increased need to diversify the profession.
CIRLA, the Chesapeake Information
and Research Library Alliance is a not-for-profit organization
of educational and research institutions in Delaware, the District
of Columbia, and Maryland, committed to the education and research
at member institutions through collaborative development of library
collections and service programs and expanding use of information
technology.
