OBOB Book Grants Program

OBOB Book Grants for the 2025-26 OBOB season have been completed. Stay tuned for applications to open in May 2026 for the 2026-27 OBOB season.

The OBOB Book Grants program offers an application-based opportunity for participating schools to receive a complete set of OBOB Books for their grade division through funding provided from the Library Services and Technologies Act (LSTA) through the State Library of Oregon and donations from the public.

Applications for an OBOB Book Grant open in May and close in June with schools being notified by August if they have been selected.

Criteria for selection:

  • Demonstration of financial need or other barriers that could limit participation
  • School registration for OBOB local competition
  • Participation in the Regional Tournament (school will send one team!)
