The University of Delaware Library will offer two workshops on research funding - "Research Funding Online" and "Funding Sources for Graduate Students" - during the spring semester, according to school officials.
Both workshops, which will be co-sponsored by the University of Delaware Research Office, will cover strategies for searching databases, procedures for using alerting services and locating additional grant information on the Internet, according to a press release. They will be offered at no charge.
"Research Funding Online" will focus on two library databases, Foundation Directory Online and COS Pivot, which faculty and staff can use to identify potential funding resources.
"Funding Sources for Graduate Students" will also focus on two library databases, Foundation Grants to Individuals Online and COS Pivot, which graduate students can use to identify potential funding resources, such as grants from private foundations, corporations and government agencies.
