Securing funding for Open Educational Resources (OER) and digitization projects can be a
transformative opportunity for theological libraries. The Scholarly Communications and Digital Initiatives Committee will hold a panel of successful past grant recipients to discuss their challenges and lessons learned in the process of both applying for the Atla grants, and successfully completing their projects. Together this panel will explore the complexities of navigating funding applications, institutional priorities, and project logistics.
Learning Outcome
By the end of the sessions, the attendees will: Get familiarized and get clear understanding of the process of successful ATLA grant applications from formulating a project idea to successfully executing the project;
Understand the challenges and obstacles that grant participants might face, and discuss strategies to overcome them;
Gain inspiration and actionable advice on submitting their own ATLA grant applications.
Audience Engagement
The attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions from the panelists through the open Q&A and will also be invited to participate in some interactive polling to understand their familiarity with the Atla grants.
