The National Endowment for the Humanities, also known as NEH, is the US federal government's independent agency which was established under the National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act of 1965.
Currently, NEH is primarily liable for supporting research studies, education opportunities, preservation, and public programs in field of humanities.
In line with its agency objectives, NEH recently established a funding opportunity entitled the National Digital Newspaper Program(NDNP).
The goal of the National Digital Newspaper Program would be to crate a national digital resource of historically significant newspapers published within the years 1836 and 1922, from all of the States and its territories.
For the National Digital Newspaper Program, NEH will collaborate with the Library of Congress, where they will work towards making the digitized resources a searchable database and become freely accessible through the internet.
Every participating state will be awarded funds to assist them in the National Digital Newspaper Program, so long as sufficient funds will be allocated for these projects and that the states will not include activities which aren't within the scope of the program, including:
a) the digitization of serials that do not fit the definition of newspaper used by the Library of Congress, as well as the digitization of serials that aren't referred to as newspapers in associated CONSER bibliographic records
b) the digitization of newspapers that were published outside the 1836-1922 chronological span
c) the expenses of enhancing the digital corpus of newspapers developed by National Digital Newspaper Program for incorporation into other databases
d) the expenses of a local access interface at the awardee institution.
The National Endowment for the Humanities is ready to enter into cooperative agreements of up to $400,000 per awardee, for over a two-year period.
