NHPRC’s Archives Basic Projects Grant
Posted by Alicia on 4 June, 2008 in Preservation
The National Historical Publications and Records Commission staff will
hold a conference call on July 1, 2008 to answer questions about its
Archives: Basic Projects grants.
In brief, the Commission developed this category because it “is
particularly concerned that some historical collections in archives
and repositories are difficult for most researchers to find because
they are not processed or represented in national catalogs. . . .” As a
result, the Commission seeks proposals for projects that support
backlog processing and collections cataloging, phased preservation,
and/or collections development.”
The full announcement is available on NHPRC’s website. Applications
are due on October 6, 2008 [the date on the website will be revised
shortly]. NHPRC staff will review drafts that are submitted by August
1, 2008.
The conference call will begin on Tuesday, July 1 at 3:00 PM Eastern
Time and last one hour. If you are interested in participating,
please send an email to Nathan Sowry at Nathan.sowry@nara.gov. He will
send you the information on how to participate. We are limited to 25
participants in this call. If there is sufficient interest, we will
schedule another call.
