Assistance Grants help small and mid-sized cultural institutions improve
their ability to preserve and care for their significant humanities collections through
assessment, consultation, training and the purchase of supplies, furniture,
and equipment. Projects may support the preservation of
physical as well as digital humanities collections. Applicants
must draw on the knowledge of consultants whose preservation skills and
experience are related to the types of collections and the nature of the
activities on which their projects focus. When assessing the
preservation needs of library, museum, or archival holdings,
applicants should seek a consultant whose specialty is appropriate for the
nature of their collections and who is knowledgeable about the
preservation of collections in these types of institutions. The
program encourages applications from small and mid-sized institutions that
have never received an NEH grant; community colleges, Hispanic-Serving
Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and Tribal
Colleges and Universities; and Native American tribes and Native Alaskan and
Native Hawaiian organizations with significant humanities collections.
Furthermore, organizations or collections that represent the contributions of
under-represented communities are highly encouraged. Encouragements for
2022:
