Details:
National Digital Newspaper Program builds on the foundation established by an earlier NEH initiative conducted from 1982 to 2011: the United States Newspaper Program (USNP). The USNP was a cooperative national effort to locate, catalog, and preserve on microfilm American newspapers published from the eighteenth century to the present. Projects in all fifty states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands collaborated to provide bibliographic control to widely scattered newspapers and preserved on microfilm (to consistent national standards) selected titles from this vulnerable corpus. LOC provided technical assistance for USNP throughout its existence.
NEH intends to support projects in all states and U.S. jurisdictions and make one award to an organization within each U.S. state or jurisdiction, which typically collaborates with relevant partners in this effort.
