CLIR Invites Applications for Digitizing
At-Risk Audio and Audiovisual Materials
The Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) is now accepting applications from collecting institutions for the digital reformatting of audio and audiovisual materials, in its fourth call for the
Recordings at Risk grant program. Generously funded by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Recordings at Risk is focused on digitizing “at-risk” audio and audiovisual materials of high scholarly value.
For the fourth call, CLIR will award grants of between $10,000 and $50,000 for digital reformatting projects between 3 and 12 months carried out between October 1, 2018, and September 30, 2019.
The application deadline for the fourth call is June 29, 2018. Awards will be announced by September 28, 2018.
All audio and audiovisual formats are eligible, though applicants must partner with a qualified external service provider that can perform technically competent and cost-effective digital reformatting for the nominated format(s).
News and future developments with the Recordings at Risk program will be available through the program website and
Twitter.
