Hi Barry,

This is good news, and I will be happy to share it.  I am copying this response to my friends at COS, who may contact you for more information if needed, and a couple of listserves so that my research administration colleagues can pick it up and also share it with their faculty.

Best wishes,
Charna

Two Research Grants Offered from Special Collections & University Archives




Charna,

The University Libraries would like to get word out about this grant that we are offering to encourage use of some of our Special Collections and University Archives materials.  It occurs to me that this would be something good to list in COS.  Can you help us get it listed there?  You may have other or better ideas for getting the word out, and if so we would appreciate your help.

Betty Carter is the contact person in the Libraries if you need more information.


The University Libraries of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro are pleased to offer two research grants for researchers utilizing the outstanding resources of the Special Collections and Rare Books and University Archives and Manuscripts Department. The goal of the research grants is to promote scholarly research utilizing the resources of this Department. Collections include the Woman’s Collection, Rare Book Collection, Cello Music Collections, Manuscripts Collection, Women Veterans Historical Collection, and University Archives.

The grants are open to graduate students, faculty, and independent scholars. The applicant must live outside a 75-mile radius of Greensboro, NC and must make at least one in-person research visit to Jackson Library. Two awards, up to $1000 each, will be awarded for the time period, July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010.

Applicants are advised to speak to the Special Collections and University Archives Department and to view additional information  at http://library.uncg.edu/depts/archives/news/grant.asp
