Digitizing Historical Records Grants

Digitizing Historical Records Grants
The National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) seeks proposals that use cost-effective methods to digitize nationally significant historical record collections and make the digital versions freely available online. Projects must make use of existing holdings of historical repositories and consist of entire collections or series. The materials should already be available to the public at the archives and described so that projects can re-use existing information to serve as metadata for the digitized collection.
Draft Deadline (optional): April 2, 2012
Final Deadline: June 7, 2012
Visit the NHPRC web site to learn all the details.
