Description
The promotion of library services in Burgenland supports public libraries and community libraries in the modernization of buildings and media offerings. Targeted infrastructure measures that facilitate access to books, digital media, and cultural events are funded. In addition, the funding program secures the operation of the Burgenland Library Association and fosters statewide initiatives such as "Austria Reads" and the annual Book Weeks. Through these measures, library management and staff strengthen cultural diversity in Burgenland, invite readers of all ages, and promote public engagement around the themes of reading and knowledge.
As a grant program, the funding is aimed at public institutions with verifiable ties to Burgenland – in particular community libraries, public libraries, and the Burgenland Library Association. Applications can be submitted at any time; there is no fixed submission deadline. A prerequisite is a standardized funding application submitted via the official funding application form. Disbursement takes place after verification of proper use through submission of balanced receipts. With this continuous funding opportunity, the Burgenland Fund contributes to the sustainable strengthening of culture and media in rural areas and offers interested parties a reliable planning perspective for their library projects.
