CANB Provincial Grant Program 2010
Again this year we anticipate the renewal of the grant from the Province of New Brunswick for the 2010-11 fiscal year. The funding will enable CANB to continue to serve its member institutions via Archives Advisor site visits and related services, workshops, our website, sponsorship of Heritage Fairs in the public school system, re-formatting of audio-visual materials for our members, and other projects.
As in the previous four years, a portion of this funding is available to member institutions under the CANB Provincial Grant Program. The objective of this program is to support archival institutions as they seek to preserve and provide access to New Brunswick’s documentary heritage. CANB encourages you to plan a project that addresses your needs in fulfilling your institution’s archival mandate. Institutions may be awarded up to $5000 (per application).
Please download the Guidelines in Word (79KB) or PDF (coming soon) format. They will assist you in preparing your grant application.
Please contact Melissa McCarthy, CANB Archives Advisor for further assistance in developing your project or writing your application.
We must receive your application by May 5, 2010. Please download the application form in Word (42KB) format.
