Hello Code4Lib,

I am pleased to share that the Digital Preservation Outreach and Education
Network  (DPOE-N, https://www.dpoe.network/) seeks to *provide funding and
support *to US cultural heritage professionals and institutions for digital
preservation training. DPOE-N is a Mellon-funded initiative that is based
at Pratt Institute and New York University’s Moving Image Archiving &
Preservation Program.

We are currently accepting applications for our two funding opportunities,
and hope you will consider applying and/or share this exciting news with
your colleagues.

The first and main DPOE-N initiative offers funding for individuals in the
US to seek training in the area of digital preservation
<https://www.dpoe.network/professional-development-support/>. Funding can
be used within a network of available professional development providers
and can cover more than one workshop. DPOE-N staff are available to work
with those interested in applying to develop a professional development
program that fits their needs and help them with the application process.

DPOE-N has also set aside a modest amount of funds for emergency hardware
support <https://www.dpoe.network/emergency-hardware-support/> to US-based
institutions who are stewarding digital materials that are critically
endangered stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us

Best,
Anthony
