[Previous Posting] [Next Posting] Reminder, Aug. 1st deadline for physics/astronomy processing grants
This is a reminder and a repost for those who missed earlier announcements: The Center for History of Physics, American Institute of Physics, is pleased to announce its 2006 Grants to Archives. The deadline for applications is August 1, 2006. The grants are intended to make accessible records, papers, and other primary sources that document the history of modern physics and allied fields (such as astronomy, geophysics, and optics). Grants may be up to $10,000 each and can be used to cover direct expenses connected with inventorying, arranging, describing, cataloging, and preserving appropriate collections. Expenses can include staff salaries/benefits and archival storage materials but not overhead or equipment. The AIP History Center's mission is to help preserve and make known the history of modern physics, astronomy, and allied sciences, and the grant program is intended to help support significant work to make original sources in these fields accessible to researchers. Preference will accordingly be given to medium size or larger projects for which the grant will be matched by the parent organization or other funding sources. For grant guidelines check the Center's Web site at http://www.aip.org/history/grntgde.htm or call 301 209-3165. Inquiries are welcome, and sample proposals are available on request. A list of previous recipients is on our Web site. Deadline for receipt of applications is August 1, 2006.
