Q: Is your proposal in support of an individual library,
academic library, or library service in your community?
Yes: Although the Carnegie name has long been associated
with libraries, the Corporation discontinued making grants for public
library buildings in 1917 and for the development of academic libraries
in 1948. In June 1999, the foundation supported a one-time commemoration
of Andrew Carnegie's support for public libraries. Currently, the
Corporation does not have an ongoing program to support library
development for individual institutions or communities in the U.S.
However, the foundation is presently developing a
program to revitalize public libraries in Africa. Only those
African libraries and library systems invited by the Corporation
to submit proposals will be considered for funding.
