Opportunity Information: Apply for 20200515 PR
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), through its Division of Preservation and Access, offers the Research and Development grant program to support innovative projects that tackle significant, field-wide problems related to the preservation of and access to humanities collections and resources. The program is designed for work that strengthens how libraries, archives, museums, cultural heritage organizations, and higher education institutions care for and share humanities materials, whether those materials are physical, digital, or born-digital. A central feature of the opportunity is that it accommodates projects at different levels of maturity by offering two funding tiers, making it suitable both for earlier-stage exploration and for more advanced efforts that are closer to implementation.
This opportunity is a discretionary federal grant (CFDA 45.149) with an award ceiling of $350,000. NEH anticipated making approximately six awards under this cycle. The funding is intended for research-driven and practical development work that can contribute broadly to the humanities community, especially when it addresses major preservation and access challenges and produces outcomes, methods, tools, or knowledge that other institutions can adapt or build upon.
Eligible applicants include a wide range of public and nonprofit entities: state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in that nonprofit category). In short, the program is positioned to support collaborations and institution-led initiatives across the cultural heritage and academic sectors.
For the specific opportunity listed (Funding Opportunity Number 20200515 PR), the notice was created on March 13, 2020, with an original application deadline of May 15, 2020. The overall goal remains to advance the preservation and accessibility of humanities resources by funding well-conceived research and development projects that address pressing needs in the field.Apply for 20200515 PR
