The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) created a grant program to support humanities infrastructure, titled Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grants. It will offer cultural institutions (libraries, museums, archives, historic sites, etc.) up to $750,000 in grants as a way to build up their capacity or infrastructure for long-term sustainability. The press release notes that the grants, “which require a match of nonfederal funds, may be used toward capital expenditures such as construction and renovation projects, purchase of equipment and software, sharing of humanities collections between institutions, documentation of lost or imperiled cultural heritage, sustaining digital scholarly infrastructure, and preservation and conservation of humanities collections.”The application deadline for the first round of grants is March 15, 2018.
