The Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM) Region 3, housed at the Gibson D. Lewis Library, would like to invite you to join us for the next session of our monthly webinar series. Health Bytes is a monthly 1 hour series that focuses on topics of interest to clinicians, researchers, faculty, and information professionals.

Webinar Description: This webinar is designed to provide a general overview of the NNLM grant submission process, with a focus on assessing needs within a library, organization, or community, identifying potential funding sources, crafting a strong grant proposal, and implementing the project. Each of these steps will be examined by going through the development process for the NNLM grant-funded project Powering Clinics & Communities with PubMed: Building Library Awareness at a Safety-Net Hospital System. This session will also highlight practical tips for setting attainable project goals and timelines, connecting with potential partners, and addressing possible implementation challenges.
