Digital Humanities Implementation Grants

Grants are welcome. Unlike NEH’s start-up grant program, which emphasizes basic research, prototyping, experimentation, and potential impact, the Digital Humanities Implementation Grants program seeks to identify projects that have successfully completed their start-up phase and are well positioned to have a major impact. Proposals are welcome for digital initiatives in any area of the humanities. Digital Humanities Implementation Grants may involve • implementation of computationally-based methods or techniques for humanities research; • implementation of new digital tools for use in humanities research, public programming, or educational settings; • efforts to ensure the completion and long-term sustainability of existing digital resources (typically in conjunction with a library or archive); • studies that examine the philosophical or practical implications of the use of emerging technologies in specific fields or disciplines of the humanities, or in interdisciplinary collaborations involving several fields or disciplines; or • implementation of new digital modes of scholarly communication that facilitate peer review, collaboration, or the dissemination of humanities scholarship for various audiences. Successful projects must make digital innovations and be significant to the humanities.
