Independent Television Service Announces LINCS 2006
Guidelines
 Deadline: May 25, 2006

 A program of the Independent Television Service
 ( http://www.itvs.org/ ), LINCS -- Local Independents
 Collaborating with Stations -- gives independent
 producers and public television stations an opportunity
 to form full production and presentation partnerships. By
 providing matching funds to these partnerships, LINCS
 acts as a catalyst, helping independent producers
 leverage the support of stations and helping stations
 access the talent of independent producers, creating
 programs that speak to their communities.

 LINCS seeks projects that differ from standard television
 fare. Programs should stimulate civic discourse and find
 innovative ways to explore regional, cultural, political,
 social, or economic issues. Projects should speak to the
 ITVS mission to serve underserved audiences with programs
 that "take creative risks, explore complex issues, and
 express points of view seldom seen on commercial or
 public television." LINCS encourages two-producer
 projects, where an experienced maker mentors an emerging
 assistant producer or co-producer.

 Projects may be in any stage of development, and all
 genres are eligible, including documentary, drama,
 animation, and innovative combinations. Public television
 must be the intended distribution outlet.

 Stations must elect a representative that will be
 committed to working closely with the independent
 producer from start to finish on the project. The
 independent producer must be at least 18 years old and a
 citizen or legal resident of the United States or its
 external territories. Station partners must be affiliated
 with the PBS system ( http://www.pbs.org/ ) and/or
 receive monies from the Corporation for Public
 Broadcasting ( http://www.cpb.org/ ).

 LINCS funding provides up to $100,000. Funds are paid
 directly to the independent producer. Requested funding
 must be matched by a combination of secured cash and the
 station's in-kind and/or cash contributions.

 Visit the ITVS Web site for complete program information
 and application procedures. The online application will
 be available March 20, 2006.

Partnership for a Nation of Learners Announces
Community Collaboration Grant Program

 Deadline: March 1, 2006

 The Partnership for a Nation of Learners
 ( http://www.partnershipforlearners.org/ ) is a
 Corporation for Public Broadcasting ( http://cpb.org/ )
 and Institute of Museum and Library Services
 ( http://www.imls.gov ) leadership initiative.

 The purpose of the project's joint Community
 Collaboration Grant program is to build and strengthen
 working relationships among libraries, museums, and
 public broadcasting licensees that enhance their
 respective roles within their communities.

 Projects eligible to apply include collaborations between
 a public broadcasting licensee (radio or television) and
 a museum or library, or among all three types of
 organizations. Projects that involve all three types of
 organizations -- museums, libraries, and public
 broadcasting licensees (and, where appropriate, other
 community organizations) -- will generally be considered
 more competitive for funding purposes.

 Each proposed project should show how collaboration and
 shared resources enable partners to meet clearly defined
 needs for one or more audience segments within their
 local communities.

 Projects must begin on the first day of the month.
 Projects may begin at any point between October 1, 2006,
 and December 1, 2006. Grant amounts will range from
 $25,000 to $250,000.

 For information on the Partnership for a Nation of
 Learners program and/or to download complete grant
 guidelines and application instructions, visit the
 program's Web site.

 workshop.

 The program is open to all young people between the ages
 of 18 and 29. Individuals applying must have a leadership
 role in a youth-led initiative that works to create
