Using Grant Information

Grant information may be used by any member of the public. The print collection does not circulate, but photocopiers are available. Information provided by computers usually can be printed or downloaded for a small fee per page. Users do their own research; librarians at the Reference Desk are available to offer basic assistance.

Workshops

The UO Library will be offering occasional workshops on finding grants and foundation information. To find out more, contact Tom Stave tstave@uoregon.edu.
