[Ohiodig] FW: Free JCAS Reading Group event- "Beyond the Grant", 9/24

[Carleton, Janet (she/her)]

Check out a discussion of our Ohio colleagues' work:

Abstract: The paper will highlight ongoing work at three cultural heritage institutions in northern Ohio (Bowling Green State University, Kent State University, and the Lakeside Heritage Society) to extend the work begun during grant-funded digital projects beyond the term of a grant. Sustaining related work after the grant funding period has expired is a concern for many practitioners and to date, is a topic that has not been discussed in-depth in the literature. While each institution has its own unique staffing and operational demands, the article will outline a number of sustainable approaches that can be tailored to different scenarios for ongoing project support and growth.

September 24, 2025
1:00-2:00pm ET
Free virtual event
Register here<https://newenglandarchivists.org/event-6301787>

Join New England Archivists for a discussion and Q&A with the authors of "Beyond the Grant: Cultivating Sustainable Next Steps". The paper, by Virginia A. Dressler, Kaysie Harrington, Michael C. Hawkins, Michelle Sweetser, and Nicholas Pavlik, highlights ongoing work at three cultural heritage institutions to extend the work begun during grant-funded digital projects beyond the term of their grants. Whether you are in the middle of grant-funded work, have completed a grant or had a grant terminated, or are simply considering grant funding, this discussion will help you explore sustainable approaches to maintaining momentum on grant-funded initiatives once funding ends.

Attendees are invited to join in an open discussion of the article, where they can hear more from the authors, pose questions to the group, and discuss how the article reflects or informs their own work.

The article can be downloaded for free at this link: elischolar.library.yale.edu/jcas/vol11/iss1/5<https://elischolar.library.yale.edu/jcas/vol11/iss1/5/>
