Chair’s Disaster Recovery Grants for Humanities Collections help institutions—such as libraries, museums, historical societies, archival repositories, cultural organizations, federally recognized Native American Tribal governments, and colleges and universities respond to and recover from disasters. Preservation field services networks and consortia that support collecting institutions’ efforts to respond to and recover from emergencies impacting cultural heritage collections are also eligible. Disasters could include, fires, floods, hurricanes, mudslides, and climate-related disasters, including, local, state, regional, and FEMA federal declarations of emergencies and disasters. Response and recovery activities may include salvaging humanities collections such as rare books, documents, photographs, artwork, sculptures, archaeological artifacts, historical objects, audiovisual media, and digital collections.
