This webinar provides basic tips on applying for grants and an overview of funding opportunities to support collections preservation. Illinois Humanities Council, AAM, IMLS, NEH, and NSF grants are explored. Smaller collections-holding institutions, especially, should find the presentation helpful.
Notes:
- Please fast forward through the first 3 minutes of the webinar because the audio is incomprehensible due to two microphones recording simultaneously.
- Slide #43 about the American Alliance of Museums' Museum Assessment Program is missing from the webinar presentation. However, you can find it in the Styles and Miller powerpoint, which is attached below.
