The Library Development Group of the Illinois State Library administers both state and federal grants totaling nearly $30 million a year. As a new feature, LDG will highlight a few grants a month that merit attention as an outstanding and innovative community service. Called "Grants You Wish You'd Thought Of," they are intended to not only salute statewide those selected for the Web Page, but to show other libraries how a grant, large or small, has the potential to change lives in hundreds of communities throughout the state.
