Grant Opportunity
INSTITUTE OF MUSEUM AND LIBRARY SERVICES (12/01/10)
The Institute’s Conservation Assessment Program awards grants for an assessment of a museums' collections as well as its environmental conditions and policies and procedures relating to collections care. The Program, supported through a cooperative agreement between the Institute and Heritage Preservation, supports a two-day site visit by a conservation professional to perform the assessment. For museums located in historic structures, the program supports a preservation architect site visit. The Program also helps institutions with living animal collections, such as zoos and aquariums that do not have an assessment of the animals’ physical conditions and habitats. Institutions with fully surveyed living animal collections may assess the conservation needs of their material collections only. Botanic gardens and arboretums may assess the conservation needs of both their living and material collections. Additional information can be found on the Web site. | Grant Range: $3,000 To $7,000 | Contact Info: INSTITUTE OF MUSEUM AND LIBRARY SERVICES, Sara Gonzales, Coordinator, CAP, Heritage Preservation, 1012 14th St. NW , Suite 1200, Washington , DC, 20005, Ph: 202-233-0800, Send Email, Visit Website, Institute of Museum and Library Services: 1800 M St. NW, 9th Floor, Washington DC 20036; 202-653-4657; 202-653-4600; www.imls.gov/applicants/grants/conservAssessment.shtm
