Catalog Membership Grant

To foster resource sharing and make a library management system affordable for any interested member library, our goal is to support the shared catalog consortia in our service area. This grant aims to increase membership in RAILS Local Library System Automation Program (LLSAP) consortia by funding startup costs for any RAILS member library that isn't currently an LLSAP member.

RAILS LLSAPs are: CCS, Pinnacle, PrairieCat, RRLC, RSA-NFP, and SWAN.
