Eligible projects include buying archival supplies to house historical records, processing or organizing historical records, buying disaster recovery supplies or performing a records inventory.
Digitization projects are not eligible for the grant funds, according to the release.
The funding is intended for short-term projects and the maximum award is $750. All grants require an in-kind or cash-donation match.
Those interested may apply through the Utah State Historical Records Advisory Board by the Aug. 31 application deadline.
The grant guidelines and application are available at http://archives.utah.gov/USHRAB/forms-menu.html. Contact Janell Tuttle at jtuttle@utah.gov for more information.
