[Robb, Evan]

A new round of LSTA grant funding from the Washington State Library (WSL) is available to support Washington libraries in carrying out a variety of digital initiatives related to archival and special collections. Public, academic (two and four year colleges and universities), and tribal libraries are eligible to submit applications.
Proposals may include or involve:
*             Digitization/reformatting of archival and special collections;
*             Metadata creation, remediation/cleanup, and/or re-cataloging;
*             Development of local standards, practices, and/or policies related to digitization, metadata creation, digital preservation, etc.;
*             Creation of born-digital multimedia content (e.g., oral histories, digital exhibits);
*             Integration of primary sources or archival collections into educational settings by way of lesson plans/curricula, and/or Open Educational Resources (OERs).

Overall funding to support this grant cycle is $80,000 with a limit of $8,000 per award. We anticipate that ten (10) or more applicants may receive awards. Details:

Application deadline: Friday, May 31, 2019.
