The Foundation Center, the leading source of information on foundation grants, has published a special reference work for libraries seeking grants, entitled The National Guide to Funding for Libraries in Information Services. The $75 volume has extensive indexes to facilitate the identification of 395 foundations with an interest in funding specific types of programs in libraries. There are over 800 descriptions of grants which have previously been made. The guide is useful for identifying possible sources of funds for library automation and other information technologies.
