Subject: Deadline for Applications to the NEH Division of Preservation & Access
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is a grant-making
agency of the U.S. federal government that support projects in the
humanities. Eligible applicants are: U.S. nonprofit associations,
institutions, and organizations, as well as U.S. citizens and foreign
nationals who have been legal residents in the United States for a
period of at least the three years immediately preceding the
submission of the application.
NEH's Division of Preservation and Access supports projects that
will create, preserve and increase the availability of resources
important for research, education, and public programming in the
humanities. Support may be sought to preserve the intellectual content
and aid bibliographic control of collections; to compile
bibliographies, descriptive catalogs, and guides to cultural holdings;
to create dictionaries, encyclopedias, databases, and other types of
research tools and reference works; and to stabilize material culture
collections through the appropriate housing and storing of objects,
improved environmental control, and the installation of security,
lighting, and fire-prevention systems. Applications may also be
submitted for national and regional education and training projects,
regional preservation field service programs, and research and
demonstration projects that are intended to enhance institutional
practice and the use of technology for preservation and access.
Projects may encompass collections of books, journals,
newspapers, manuscript and archival materials, maps, still and moving
images, sound recordings, and objects of material culture held by
libraries, archives, museums, historical organizations, and other
repositories.
The Division has a single, annual DEADLINE for applications, JULY
1. Final decisions will be announced the following March.
Guidelines and instructions can be downloaded from the NEH Web site:

A list of recent awards is also available at that site under
"What's New".
