The Grants Information Collection at UW-Madison promotes the understanding of grantsmanship by providing access to information essential to successful educational, research, and nonprofit grant-seeking, and by collecting literature in the areas of philanthropy, fundraising and nonprofit management. This resource is part of a national network of library collections throughout the U.S. established by the Foundation Center.
