Processing Grants for Physics, Astronomy, and Geophysics Collections



The Center for History of Physics, American Institute of Physics, is pleased to announce its 2002 Grants to Archives program. The deadline for applications is July 1, 2002. The grants are intended to make accessible records, papers, and other primary sources which  document the history of modern physics and allied fields (such as astronomy, geophysics, and optics).  Grants may be up to $10,000 each and can be used to cover direct expenses connected with preserving, inventorying, arranging, describing, or cataloging appropriate collections.  Expenses may include staff salaries/benefits and archival storage materials but not overhead or equipment.

The AIP History Center's mission is to help preserve and make known the history of modern physics, astronomy, and allied fields, and the grant program is intended to help support significant work to make original sources accessible to researchers.  Preference will accordingly be given to medium size or larger projects for which the grant will be matched by the parent organization or by other funding sources.  For grant guidelines check the Center's  Web site at http://www.aip.org/history/grntgde.htm or call 301 209-3165.  Inquiries are welcome, and sample proposals are available on request.  A list of previous recipients is on our Web site. 

Deadline for receipt of applications is July 1, 2002.
