[BCMA] BC History Digitization Program: 2022/2023 Call for applications

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Dear colleagues,

The British Columbia History Digitization Program (BCHDP) is now 
accepting applications for project funding. The program, initiated by 
the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre in 2006, provides matching funds to 
support digitization projects that make unique British Columbia content 
freely available. Since its inception in 2006, the BCHDP has awarded 
more than $2 million of matching funds for more than 250 projects.

In 2021, the program awarded more than $160,000 for 18 projects. The 
wealth and diversity of unique British Columbia content to be digitized 
is impressive. The BCHDP will be accepting applications for the 
2022/2023 funding year. Applicants can receive up to $15,000 of matching 
funds for their projects. Multi-year projects are accepted with each 
successive year going through the adjudication process.

Applications are due by *Friday, December 10, 2021 @ 5:00 pm PST*. 
Information about the application process as well as the guidelines and 
application form are available on the BCHDPwebsite 
<https://ikblc.ubc.ca/initiatives/bcdigitinfo/>  (https://ikblc.ubc.ca/initiatives/bcdigitinfo/bchdp-applicant-information/). 
It is highly recommended that applicants consult the /Guidelines and 
Instructions/ as well as accessing the /Application Form/ because both 
are updated annually based on feedback from applicants and the program 
adjudicators.

For more information about the program and to view past projects, please
