For the main non-competitive ARPA Formula Grant page, with the grant requirements and application,
click here. The
ARPA Formula Grant Application is now available
online.
In order to be eligible for fund distribution, public libraries must be
legally established and meet statutory requirements. Generally, see Neb.
Rev. Stat.
51-201, Neb. Rev. Stat.
51-202, and Neb. Rev. Stat.
51-203.
Libraries must submit an application before the deadline (December 31, 2021).
The formula for public and tribal libraries is a base amount of $3,750, plus
a per capita amount of .275 per capita. The formula for institutional
libraries is a base amount of $1,500, plus a per capita payment of $2.50 per
capita (based on the average resident population). The following is a list
of libraries and the funding amount they will receive if they meet the
requirements and complete the application process (NOTE: If we've missed
your library, and you are in fact a legally established Nebraska public,
institutional, or tribal library, please contact us):
