Updated and Ready to Read: Grants Workbook & Templates, 2nd Edition

Lucidea

Apr. 1, 2026
Lucidea is excited to release the second edition of Rachael Woody's "Grants Workbook & Templates" for libraries, archives, and museums—updated for 2026.
Several copies of the Grants Workbook & Templates spread out on a desk.

We are pleased to announce that Rachael Cristine Woody’s updated title, Grants Workbook & Templates, 2nd Edition, is now available from Lucidea Press.

This workbook with plug-and-play grant project templates is part of our set of invaluable grant writing resources. Lucidea has partnered with Rachael Woody of Relicura® to create a complete toolkit, including a grants directory, case studies of successful grant projects, and the 2026 second edition of her workbook. This provides an introduction to grant application elements, an overview of information to prepare for each application section, and four sample project templates.

These templates are centered on projects for:

  • Digitization
  • A collections management system (CMS)
  • Collections assessment
  • Disaster planning

Federal funding remains the largest source of available grant funding for US LAMs. For many, avoiding federal funding isn’t an option. However, during this period of uncertainty any grant acquisition strategy that includes federal funding needs to have a financial-based disaster plan.

Ms. Woody suggests that grant applicants go into the process with full knowledge of the funding risk and agreement restrictions, and work as a team to put a plan in place that helps ensure the success and well-being of your institution and community constituents. “Our work is more essential than ever, and federal funding is required to make our work possible. How we balance the newly added challenges with planning and preparation will determine our success.”
