Preservation Assistance Grants help small and mid-sized cultural institutions improve their ability to preserve and care for their significant humanities collections through assessment, consultation, training and the purchase of supplies, furniture, and equipment. Projects may support the preservation of physical as well as digital humanities collections.

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.

Encouragement for 2023:

  *   Applicants in federally declared disaster areas may apply for disaster relief supplies and activities, including conservation treatment and temporary storage and relocation.

New for 2023:

  *   Based on the results of a digital preservation assessment, you may request funding for digital storage media (e.g., external hard drives, RAID, NAS, and LTO systems).

Note: Planning for and implementing digitization, cataloging, and arrangement and description projects are NOT eligible activities. See the Humanities Collections and Reference Resources<https://www.neh.gov/grants/preservation/humanities-collections-and-reference-resources> program.

A pre-application webinar for prospective applicants will be held on October 28, 2022 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
