Preservation and Access Grants for Stabilizing Humanities Collections: These grants help museums, libraries, archives, and historical organizations preserve their humanities collections through support for improved housing and storage, environmental conditions, security, lighting, and fire protection. Eligible activities include: * the purchase of storage furniture and the rehousing of humanities collections and materials that directly document the collections, such as field notes, site maps, or catalog records; * the improvement of environmental conditions under which collections are stored or exhibited (which may encompass the installation of climate control systems); and * the installation of security, lighting, and fire detection and suppression systems. Renovation costs required to rehouse and install climate control, security, lighting, and fire protection systems are eligible. Stabilization grants may not support new construction; therefore, the costs of installing climate control, security, lighting, and fire protection systems in a building under construction are not eligible. Applicants may, however, request funds to purchase storage furniture and rehouse collections that will be moved into a new building. Stabilization projects should be based on the findings and recommendations of appropriate professionals, such as conservators, architects, engineers, or other specialists who have been engaged to work with the institution's staff.
