National Digital Newspaper Program

The National Digital Newspaper Program (NDNP) is a partnership between the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Library of Congress to create a national digital resource of historically significant newspapers published between 1690 and 1963, from all the states and U.S. territories. The program aims to support projects in all states and U.S. territories, with awards made to an organization within each state or territory. The selected organization will collaborate with relevant state partners to convert approximately 100,000 pages of newspapers into digital files over a period of two years. • The program is a cooperative agreement between the NEH and the selected organization. • The award amount ranges from $1 to $325,000. • The program prioritizes applications from states and territories that have not received NDNP funding or have received fewer than three awards. • Collaborations between previously funded and new projects are also welcome.
