Grants
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.
