Philosophy of Funding

Areas of Focus

  • Funding the development of infrastructure through grant proposals that will let us build layers onto the DRS Project Toolkit
    • Picking those layers so they will serve a wide range of projects
    • Thinking about layers 2,3 and 5 years out
  • Professional development for graduate students and librarians
  • Projects building on deep TEI and XML expertise.


National Grants

// Build out brief descriptions of grant programs, types of programs funded here //

NEH's list of all their grant programs and deadlines

Mellon, CLIR, The Spencer Foundation, The Ford Foundation

Regional and Local Grants=

  • Search specialized databases like Pivot for opportunities related to project content or theme (Catskills, ECDA others have strong content focus that might be of interest to foundations or specialized grants)

Contacts (Northeastern)

Marybeth Savicki (corporate and foundation relations)

Grants Calendar

Application Boilerplate

  • Institutional context language
  • About the DSG language

Recommendations for Projects

  • Experiment with internal grants first, such as Tier 1 grants from the Provost's Office.
  • DSG will build a checklist for new awardees
