#r2a: Getting money IN to preservation

Presentations

Funding for Digital Preservation Projects
Emily Reynolds(1), Joel Wurl(2), Pedro Gonzalez-Fernandez(3), Lucy Barber(4), Chris Barr(5)
1: Institute of Museum and Library Services; 2: National Endowment for the Humanities; 3: Council on Library and Information Resources; 4: National Historical Publications and Records Commission; 5: Knight Foundation

Program officers from public and private funders will discuss grant opportunities related to digital preservation. The discussion will focus on the kinds of projects that are the best fit for each funder, themes and trends from funded projects, and how to develop a competitive proposal.

Cost modeling and project management tools for digitization make financial forecasting easier than ever before. However, estimating and articulating the considerable long term expenses of digital preservation lags behind. The presenters will demo a nascent tool for cost modeling digital stewardship activities, and lead discussion regarding potential community efforts.
