Public Program Development
The National Endowment for the Humanities has a Public Programs division that supports a
wide range of public humanities programs, especially for projects that make use of new and
emerging technologies. These are excellent opportunities to collaborate with libraries,
museums, and other cultural organizations. Funding opportunities include the America's
Historical and Cultural Organizations grants, which offers both planning and implementation
grants, for exhibitions at museums, libraries, historic sites and historical and cultural
organizations. In addition, the NEH supports radio and television programs that
explore significant events, figures, and developments in the humanities through the America's
Media Makers grants. With the Bridging Cultures: Implementation Grants for Public
Programs, the NEH welcomes proposals to implement a national or regional program for broad
and diverse public audiences on changing humanities themes.

supports projects to advance arts and culture in the Sunshine State.
Florida Humanities Council - Grants provide support for humanities projects on a wide
variety of topics and formats.

projects that preserve or rediscover major historic sites and monuments in order to provide
ongoing sustainable access and enjoyment for current and future audiences. The programs we

Funding Opportunities in the Digital Humanities
NEH Office of Digital Humanities - This office within the National Endowment for the
Humanities (NEH) coordinates the NEH's efforts in the area of digital scholarship. Although
all NEH granting programs will fund work with a digital component (e.g., fellowships and
collaborative grants), the Office of Digital Humanities runs several specific funding programs
for digital work including: the Digging into Data Challenge for research involving large-scale
corpora and databases, Start-Up Grants for new digital projects and largerImplementation
Grants to move test projects into full implementation, digitization grants to Enrich Digital
Collections, and Institutes for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities. For more
information, see the library of all NEH funded digital humanities projects.
ACLS Digital Innovation Fellowships - This program supports digitally based research
projects in all disciplines of the humanities and related social sciences. It is hoped that projects
of successful applicants will help advance digital humanistic scholarship by broadening
understanding of its nature and exemplifying the robust infrastructure necessary for creating
such works.
Alfred P. Sloan Foundation - Program on Digital Information Technology - This program has
primarily encouraged digitizing material in the public domain; assuring public archiving,
preservation and open access of this material; and fostering its availability to people
everywhere through such technologies as books on demand.
Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship of Scholars in Critical Bibliography - The aim of this program
is to reinvigorate bibliographical studies by providing focused training and mentorship for
doctoral candidates, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty in the humanities. During their
three-year fellowship tenure, fellows will receive intensive, hands-on training at the Rare Book
School (University of Virginia), and will work with mentors from the bibliographical
community who will guide their archivally based scholarship, and help connect them with
professionals in allied fields.
Andrew W. Mellon Foundation - Program on Scholarly Communications and Information
Technology - The Foundation’s grant-making in scholarly communications has three main
objectives: (1) to support libraries and archives in their efforts to preserve and provide access
to materials of broad cultural and scholarly significance; (2) to assist scholars in the
development of specialized resources that promise to open or advance fields of study in the
humanities and humanistic social sciences; and (3) to strengthen the publication of humanistic
scholarship and its dissemination to the widest possible audience.
The Council on Library and Information Resources - An independent, non-profit organization
that forges strategies to enhance research, teaching, and learning environments in collaboration
with libraries, cultural institutions, and communities of higher learning. Its goals are to foster
new approaches to the management of digital and nondigital information resources so that they
will be available in the future, for example, through its Mellon-funded program to Catalog
Hidden Special Collections and Archives.
Google - Digital Humanities Research Awards - These 2010 awards support 12 university
research groups with unrestricted grants for one year, with the possibility of renewal for an
additional year. The recipients will receive some access to Google tools, technologies and

IATH staff will provide advice and guidance to help applicants secure appropriate funding.
The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation - Digital Media & Learning Initiative -
Through grants to scholars, educators, designers, and practitioners, MacArthur continues to
explore and expand on the hypothesis that digital media use is changing how young people

significant implications for the formal and informal institutions that are responsible for
educating American youth.
OCLC/ALISE Library & Information Science Research Grant Program (LISRGP) - In
recognition of the importance of research to the advancement of librarianship and information
