The National Historical Publications and Records Commission staff will 
hold a conference call on July 16, 2009, to answer questions about its 
Archives: Basic Projects grants.

In brief, the Commission developed this category because it is 
particularly concerned that some historical collections in archives and 
repositories are difficult for most researchers to find because they are 
not processed or represented in national catalogs.  As a result, the 
Commission seeks proposals for projects that support backlog processing 
and collections cataloging, phased preservation, and/or collections 
development.

The full announcement is available on our website:
http://www.archives.gov/nhprc/announcement/basic.html.	Applications are 
due on October 6, 2009.  NHPRC staff will review drafts that are 
submitted by August 3, 2009.

The conference call will begin on Thursday, July 16 at 3:00 PM Eastern 
Time and last one hour.	If you are interested in participating, please 
send an email to Nathan Sowry at nathan.sowry at nara.gov. He will send you 
the information on how to participate.  We are limited to 25 
participants in this call.

Please share this announcement with other appropriate individuals and
listservs.
