According to the 2007-2008 “Libraries Connect Communities: Public Library Funding and Technology Access Study”

The Commission for Libraries provides grant opportunities to eligible Idaho libraries. Library Services and Technology Act funds (LSTA) are our primary source of grant funds and are available for a variety of projects. Examples of projects might be networking libraries, expanding library services, projects to serve the underserved, continuing education projects, advocacy projects and others.
