The Ohio Historical Records Advisory Board announces the availability of grants between $500 and $5,000 to archival institutions to fund projects to preserve and/or provide access to Ohio's historical records.  The grants are funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC [archives.gov]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.archives.gov/nhprc__;!!BJspS0a0Bgg!5RfchSMrgpU27bajA-xvf4NuIY_-6Twt_eHQ5aSLAAmI_LNsPYMM3u-U0JNcMF6zXos$>), an arm of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA [archives.gov]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.archives.gov/__;!!BJspS0a0Bgg!5RfchSMrgpU27bajA-xvf4NuIY_-6Twt_eHQ5aSLAAmI_LNsPYMM3u-U0JNcyKBSt-Q$>).
Grant applications are due March 31, 2021.  More information on the grants, including the application packet, is available here [ohrab.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.ohrab.org/grants/regrant/__;!!BJspS0a0Bgg!5RfchSMrgpU27bajA-xvf4NuIY_-6Twt_eHQ5aSLAAmI_LNsPYMM3u-U0JNc3Pvy1Jg$>.
Projects eligible for funding in 2021 include:

*         Assessment and Strategic Planning: hiring consultants to identify needs and priorities for improving the organization, description, preservation and access to collections.

*         Access, Arrangement and Description: identifying, organizing, and improving access to historical records.

*         Preservation: purchasing archival file folders, archival boxes, dehumidifiers, humidifiers, hygrothermographs, or HEPA vacuum cleaners.

*         Website Development: Adding collections to online catalog, developing virtual archives, or creating an on-line database. Websites designed to support access to researchers (e.g., online catalogs, finding aids, and digitized collections, rather than curated web exhibits) will receive preference in funding.
Please Note: all projects should produce some type of online content, such as a finding aid, report or digital images.
