Dear All
This is to let you know that applications for the BAC Cataloguing Grant for business archives open today.
The grant is for £3000 and aims to fund the cataloguing of a business collection in either the private or public sector, and to:
· Provide financial support for institutions/businesses that manage business archives;
· Reach collections that have not yet been prioritised but have potential academic or socio-historical value;
· Create opportunities for archivists or para-professionals/volunteers to gain experience in listing business collections;
· Increase access to business collections.
The deadline for applications is 26 June 2017.
Previous applicants are welcome to re-apply. Please note that the BAC will not award a grant to the same institution within three years.
Find out more about the grant criteria and how to apply here: http://www.businessarchivescouncil.org.uk/activitiesobjectives/catgrant/

Many thanks, Jenny
