Grant Description
This grant program - Humanities Collections and Resources - combines support for activities that were funded previously through two separate grant categories - Preserving and Creating Access to Humanities Collections and Reference Materials. Digital technology now makes possible unified access to geographically dispersed collections and the integration of reference materials with related sources and tools. The possibilities presented by advances in technology require a new grant category that encompasses the range of activities funded through the previous programs and encourages digital projects that codify, unite, integrate, or aggregate humanities collections and resources. Humanities Collections and Resources grants support projects that preserve and create intellectual access to such collections as books, journals, newspapers, manuscript and archival materials, maps, still and moving images, sound recordings, art, and objects of material culture. To ensure that significant collections are preserved and available for research, education, or public programming in the humanities, applications may be submitted for the following activities: digitizing collections; preservation reformatting; conservation treatment; deacidification of collections; arranging and describing archival and manuscript collections; and cataloging collections of printed works, photographs, recorded sound, moving image, art, and material culture.
