AmpliFund

The Idaho Commission for Libraries is beginning to transition from Jotform to AmpliFund for all grant application and grant management activities. This change is designed to make the process easier, more transparent, and more efficient.

Please take a few moments to review the AmpliFund User Guide (PDF). This resource provides step-by-step instructions for registering, navigating the system, and managing grant-related tasks.
