What is GEER?
Georgia Public Library Service (GPLS) has provided more than 7,000 Chromebooks and 2,800 Launchpad learning tablets for children to public libraries across Georgia as part of $2.3 million Governor’s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) funds awarded by Governor Brian Kemp. The funds are intended to support learning recovery initiatives and programs as educators and students continue to confront the learning loss caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
This project was assisted through a grant from the Georgia Public Library Service with federal pandemic funding from the State of Georgia Governor’s Office.
Should we add funder acknowledgements like with other grants (i.e. ARPA)?
Yes, please use the GPLS logo and the following statement: “This project was assisted through a grant from the Georgia Public Library Service with federal pandemic funding from the State of Georgia Governor’s Office.”
