These grants, part of the Humanities Open Book Program, will be given to “publishers that have identified significant scholarly books that enhance public knowledge of topics such as American and European history, philosophy, classics, Asian and Latin American studies, architectural history, and literary criticism,” according to the press release. The grants will cover the digitization of nearly 1,000 scholarly works.For more information, read the press release.
