One red paperclip led to a free house for this man (he also wrote a book about it).

Server space? Web design service? Be creative…….

Does your library have a DUNS number?
January 13th, 2011 | Permalink | Comment?

A grant application may require a DUNS number. If you do not have one, go to
http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform. Dun and Bradstreet (D&B) is a company that provides business information. Its “data universal numbering system,” known as DUNS, issues 9-digit numbers that are used by businesses and the federal government to keep track of businesses world-wide. The federal government asks for the number in their grant applications; other funders may also require it.
