This grant program from the National Endowment for the Humanities supports day-long events organized by community cultural institutions, which members of the public are invited to attend. At these events, experienced staff will digitize the community historical materials brought in by the public. Project staff will also record descriptive information provided by community attendees about the historical materials. Contributors will be given a free digital copy of their items to take home, along with the original materials.
