The NEH (National Endowment for the Humanities) is offering this grant to institutions to participate in the National Digital Newspaper Program (NDNP). This initiative aims to create a comprehensive national digital resource of historically significant newspapers published between 1836 and 1922 from all U.S. states and territories. This searchable database will be permanently maintained and freely accessible via the Library of Congress. The grant also supports the development of an accompanying national newspaper directory. This grant is for organizations collaborating with state partners to digitize historical newspapers, enriching a crucial historical archive. Priority will be given to new projects, especially those from states or territories not previously funded by the NDNP. One organization per state/territory will receive an award.

| Description: | NEH is soliciting proposals from institutions to participate in the National Digital Newspaper Program (NDNP). NDNP is creating a national digital resource of historically significant newspapers published between 1836 and 1922, from all the states and U.S. territories. This searchable database will be permanently maintained at the Library of Congress (LC) and will be freely accessible via the Internet. (See the website, Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers.) An accompanying national newspaper directory of bibliographic and holdings information on the website directs users to newspaper titles available in all types of formats. During the course of its partnership with NEH, LC will also digitize and contribute to the NDNP database a significant number of newspaper pages drawn from its own collections. NEH intends to support projects in all states and U.S. territories, provided that sufficient funds allocated for this purpose are available. One organization within each U.S. state or territory will receive an award to collaborate with relevant state partners in this effort. Previously funded projects will be eligible to receive supplements for continued work, but the program will give priority to new projects. In particular, the program will give priority to projects from states and territories that have not received NDNP funding. |
