Grant writing guide

Get Ready...

So, you're ready to write a grant? You have an idea for a project or you have seen a need that should be addressed and want to tackle it.

What are the first steps you need to take?

First you need to do some research. Research the project you want to do; gather some appropriate statistics to document need; look at professional literature to learn more about what others are doing and saying about digitization and preservation projects. The more you know before you start writing the proposal, the better.

Then, research your funding options. Your project idea will need to match with a funder's focus and interests. Take a look at our list of potential funding sources for Digitization and Preservation Project here.
