Projects eligible for funding in 2021 include:

·       Assessment and Strategic Planning: hiring consultants to identify needs and priorities for improving the organization, description, preservation and access to collections.

·       Access, Arrangement and Description: identifying, organizing, and improving access to historical records.

·       Preservation: purchasing archival file folders, archival boxes, dehumidifiers, humidifiers, hygrothermographs, or HEPA vacuum cleaners.

·       Website Development: Adding collections to online catalog, developing virtual archives, or creating an on-line database. Websites designed to support access to researchers (e.g., online catalogs, finding aids, and digitized collections, rather than curated web exhibits) will receive preference in funding.


Please Note: all projects should produce some type of online content, such as a finding aid, report or digital images.
