Peggy Barber Tribute Grant | ALA Peggy Barber Tribute Grant The Peggy Barber Tribute Grant is an annual grant of the American Library Association (ALA) that recognizes, promotes, and supports meaningful programs in libraries that have limited and/or no access to budgetary support for programming.
The grant, named after the late library leader Peggy Barber, aims to help ease library budget challenges by awarding three libraries $2,500 to support a proposed program, program series, or programming effort. Each year, the grant will focus on supporting a specific type of library programming. The theme for the 2026-2027 has not yet been determined.
Please check back here closer to December 2026 for an update. Please include how your proposed program will bring people in your community together, how your program will foster connection amongst participants, and how the program can help folks share space with other people in the community.
