The National Endowment for the Humanities' (NEH) Preservation Assistance Grants help small and mid-sized institutions, such as libraries, historical societies, and archival repositories, improve their ability to preserve and care for their significant humanities collections. These may include special collections of books and journals, archives and manuscripts, prints and photographs, moving images, sound recordings, architectural and cartographic records, decorative and fine art objects, textiles, archaeological and ethnographic artifacts, furniture, historical objects, and digital materials.

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 that are
the focus of their projects. Small and mid-sized institutions that have never
received an NEH grant are especially encouraged to apply; over the course of the last five years, approximately 36% of applications have been funded.
A free webinar will
be held on Thursday, March 14, 2013, 2-3PM (Eastern) to provide
guidance on preparing Preservation Assistance Grant applications. Seating is
limited. Register online for free.
For additional information and grant application materials, go this website.
The deadline to
submit applications is for projects beginning January 2014.
