3 Why we sought funding Increase Access and Usage. Preservation.
Money for equipment. Money for labor.

4 Possible Funding Sources
Horseshoe Foundation of Floyd County Southern Indiana Community Foundation LSTA Grant IU Southeast Regional Research/ Creativity Initiative Saturday, February 4, 2017

5 Application Process : Quick!
Project Proposal Form “Libraries are strongly encouraged to submit a project proposal form before completing a digitization grant application.” Due February 28th Stay curious. Ask for help. Read.

6 Use the Feedback “It sounds like an intriguing project.  I would suggest that you focus on the historical significance of the items to be digitized.  The focus of the LSTA grants is to assist libraries in their efforts to digitize their unique collections and make these collections available through Indiana Memory and the Digital Public Library of America.  The tone of this grant proposal is more on education than enhancing library collections.  It is a fine line, but critical when the review panel evaluates applications.” Accessing, Engaging, and Tactile (Comprehending) Material Culture: through 3D imaging.
