Preservation Assistance Grants can help small and mid-sized cultural institutions protect their digital collections by funding digital preservation needs assessments and the creation of detailed preservation plans for digital collections. Applicants may also receive funding to host digital preservation workshops.

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: 

  *   Applicants planning for activities aligned with the Agency initiative, A More Perfect Union<https://www.neh.gov/news/more-perfect-union>, may apply for up to $15,000. 
  *   Applicants in federally declared disaster areas may apply for disaster relief supplies and activities, including conservation treatment and temporary storage and relocation.

A pre-application webinar for prospective applicants will be held November 29, 2021 at 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time.  Join using this link: Preservation Assistance Grant Webinar<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com%2F%3Furl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fteams.microsoft.com%252Fdl%252Flauncher%252Flauncher.html%253Furl%253D%25252F_%252523%25252Fl%25252Fmeetup-join%25252F19%25253Ameeting_MmUxYzkxMjMtMGJkMC00NTJlLTgwZGYtZWI3MmVhM2E3YTZh%252540thread.v2%25252F0%25253Fcontext%25253D%2525257b%25252522Tid%25252522%2525253a%2525252293b06459-c77d-44b6-af7f-e813cddcdcc3%25252522%2525252c%25252522Oid%25252522%2525253a%2525252204fe2499-6948-493f-8500-21f3a6055f45%25252522%2525252c%25252522IsBroadcastMeeting%25252522%2525253atrue%2525257d%252526btype%25253Da%252526role%25253Da%252526anon%25253Dtrue%2526type%253Dmeetup-join%2526deeplinkId%253D81e9811f-124a-466d-930d-3502d068c661%2526directDl%253Dtrue%2526msLaunch%253Dtrue%2526enableMobilePage%253Dfalse%2526suppressPrompt%253Dtrue%26data%3D04%257C01%257Ccflynn%2540neh.gov%257C1164074890374d88f6ee08d98418accd%257C93b06459c77d44b6af7fe813cddcdcc3%257C0%257C0%257C637686063789098850%257CUnknown%257CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%253D%257C1000%26sdata%3D6BYxCHsoOB9uUpiuhhW%252BdHwSHetGHPZz61GuVAJxhYQ%253D%26reserved%3D0&data=04%7C01%7Ccarleton%40OHIO.EDU%7C0348852dd80844269ed608d99255a0ee%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637701719135405460%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=fn4lfTReNIGFese1biAIVbBsKibl2B7SNF%2BPbfYS%2Fwk%3D&reserved=0>.
