I have a question somewhat related to this thread. I visited the links of
centers that other's have provided. I've seen that some have been supported
through grant money. Is there a list of grants that are friendly to language
learning and technology? We have a small center, but I would be interested
in exploring opportunities to expand it. 

Thank you,
Tina

Dear Nina,

Right now, this is just a shot in the dark for getting a new center. We
will see if anything comes out of this. Thank you for your advice, I do
have an old version of the manual and I will check it out.

Best,
Audrey

Hi Audrey --

         Congratulations on the new opportunities!  (And condolences 
on the short time allotted for developing them -- all too common.)  I 
can't give you specs and prices, but if you're looking for 
rationales, arguments, etc., you might find the opening section of 
the IALLT Language Center Management Manual useful.  If you don't 
have it, you should get it, but if you need that piece in a hurry, 
e-mail me and I'll send it as an attachment.  (I wrote it, so I think 
I'm allowed.)

         Good luck --
                 Nina
