TownsWeb Archiving have announced their 2022 Digitisation Grants are now open to applications.

This year, 4x£3,000 funding grants are available and up to £1,000 matched funding for all other eligible applicants.

Each of these categories contains a list of more specific material types. Part of the grant may also be used for the transcription of metadata and OCR (optical character recognition) data capture

Any UK based organisation can apply as long as you are working on behalf of public, private and charity archives, business/corporate archives, public and private libraries, museums or galleries. You can even apply if your institution or organisation has applied in the past.
