Earlier this week, the National Endowment for the Humanities announced $34 million in awards and offers for 177 humanities projects, including ten NDNP awardees for 2014.
We are thrilled to announce that TNDP’s application was successful!
This third award will allow us to digitize a further 100,000 pages of historic Tennessee newspapers to add to the 200,000 pages digitized over the last few years.
We look forward to continuing our partnership with the Tennessee State Library and Archives and the Library of Congress.
Two new states will be joining NDNP in 2014 – Nevada and South Dakota – and there will be eight returning states: Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, New Mexico, North Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, and Virginia.
Phase III will begin on September 1, 2014 — watch this space!
