UBC Arts Co-op Program – funding opportunity for rural libraries & archives

Thanks to a generous gift from a private foundation, the University of British Columbia (UBC) Arts Co-op Program is able to offer funding to support four organizations (BC or Yukon public libraries or community archives that serve a population of 10,000 or fewer people) to subsidize one four-month co-op position for three consecutive years (2017, 2018, and 2019).

The funding is intended to support tasks and projects in a library or archives that would not otherwise be resourced, but which are of priority to the organization and which will benefit the community broadly.

The deadline to apply is 4 p.m. on Monday, October 31, 2016.
