Elsevier Foundation Invites 2009 Proposals for Innovative Libraries and New
Scholars Programs





Grants promote academic diversity and research in the developing world



New York, 15 April 2008 - The Elsevier Foundation is seeking new grant
proposals for its 2009 Innovative Libraries in Developing Countries and New
Scholars programs. Sponsored by Elsevier, a leading global publisher of
scientific, technical and medical information, the new Foundation proposals
are due by August 1st, 2009. The grants for the two programs will be awarded
in December 2009 and provide one, two and three year awards between US$5,000
to US$50,000 per year.



 The Innovative Libraries in Developing Countries (
http://www.elsevierfoundation.org/library.html)  program supports the
efforts of libraries in developing countries to improve their ability to put
scientific, technical and medical information to work for those who need it.
Past projects have included: expanding library information resources through
digitization and knowledge preservation; training and education programs for
librarians and researchers; developed-developing world partnerships to
provide longer term technical assistance and training.



The New Scholars http://www.elsevierfoundation.org/scholar.html program
supports academic and research communities in creating model programs to
help scholars in the early stages of their careers balance childcare and
family responsibilities with demanding academic careers in science, health
and technology. Grants awarded in 2007-8 have promoted institutional
research, advocacy, and policy development to retain, recruit and develop
women in science, as well as enabling researchers to attend conferences
critical to their careers, by assisting with childcare, mentorship and
networking.



Active since 2002, the Elsevier Foundation provides grants to institutions
around the world, with a focus on supporting the world's libraries and
scholars in the early stages of their careers.  Since its inception, the
Foundation has awarded more than 50 grants worth over a million dollars to
non-profit organizations working in these fields.
