Connecting Communities Digital Initiative – Higher Education Grant
Through CCDI, the Library will fund two grant programs for applicants to create digital or digital/physical interfaces, publications or exhibits that incorporate Library of Congress digital materials into resources that meet local community needs. This program will offer grants to support students, faculty and staff in 2 year and 4 year higher education institutions that primarily serve communities of color. The grants will support the creation or maintenance of community stories in digital formats, where those stories would benefit from inclusion of Library of Congress materials. The Library will award one grant for up to $60,000 to a higher education institution to support the development of a digital interface, publication, exhibit, or experimental approaches to bringing digital Library of Congress material together with a course, program, or interest group that will make use of the product for educational purposes at the 2 or 4 year higher education institution.
