National Endowment for the Humanities This program supports
projects that provide an essential underpinning for scholarship,
education, and public programming in the humanities. Thousands
of libraries, archives, museums, and historical organizations
across the country maintain important collections of books and
manuscripts, photographs, sound recordings and moving images,
archaeological and ethnographic artifacts, art and material
culture, and digital objects. Funding from this program
strengthens efforts to extend the life of such materials and
make their intellectual content widely accessible, often through
the use of digital technology. Awards are also made to create
various reference resources that facilitate use of cultural
materials, from works that provide basic information quickly to
tools that synthesize and codify knowledge of a subject for in-
depth investigation. Grant link:
