California State Library is accepting applications for the Preservation & Accessibility of California’s LGBTQ+ History grant program.
This program is targeted at archives of all sizes for projects that preserve and make publicly accessible collections relevant to the LGBTQ+ movement, culture, experience, and/or history in California. It also aims to preserve and make accessible materials demonstrating the significant role of LGBTQ+ Californians and the LGBTQ+ movement in this state. By preserving and making these resources available to others, funded projects will help provide a more comprehensive and inclusive view of California’s history.
Projects must include activities that focus on educating the public, researchers, and other stakeholders about and encouraging them to access the collection(s).
Projects must focus on research-value materials, including monographs, serials, manuscripts, archival materials, maps, architectural drawings, sound recordings, photographs, moving images, and newspapers. This funding is not for the preservation of works of art on paper, paintings, sculptures, or other objects.
