Opportunity Information: Apply for NAG HAWAIIAN FY22
The Native Hawaiian Library Services Grants (2022) opportunity is a discretionary grant program offered by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) to strengthen core library services in Native Hawaiian communities. It is positioned within the broader arts and humanities funding space (CFDA 45.311) and is meant to support practical improvements that help libraries serve as community anchors for learning, engagement, and access to information. The program aligns with IMLS agency-wide priorities, especially lifelong learning, stronger community connections, and better stewardship of library collections and access to them.
The grant focuses on three main areas. First, it supports upgrades to digital services so libraries can better meet everyday community needs tied to education and job readiness, including workforce development and skill building. This includes services that help people access online learning, build digital literacy, strengthen critical thinking skills, and find reliable health information, as well as resources that can support economic, business, and entrepreneurial development. Second, it encourages stronger educational programming that reflects what local patrons and community users actually want and use, meaning libraries can design or expand classes, workshops, speaker series, tutoring support, or other structured learning activities centered on topics that are locally relevant. Third, it places a clear emphasis on culture by funding efforts that preserve and revitalize Native Hawaiian language and cultural heritage, which can include projects that protect, organize, digitize, or otherwise improve access to culturally significant materials and knowledge held by Native Hawaiian libraries.
In terms of funding details, the opportunity number is NAG HAWAIIAN FY22, with an award ceiling of $150,000 per grant and an expectation of about three total awards. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity was posted on January 5, 2022, with an original application closing date of April 1, 2022. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with additional eligibility clarification expected in the full announcement, but the program is specifically intended for Native Hawaiian libraries and their efforts to improve services for their communities.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a targeted investment in library capacity: improving digital access and skills, expanding community-driven educational programming, and protecting and strengthening Native Hawaiian cultural and language resources through library services and stewardship.Apply for NAG HAWAIIAN FY22
