All areas where faculty need support.
Concept development of projects.
Grant support in the libraries is limited but we have experience with grant writing and have assisted with this. There

Much of this work is done in conjunction with a campus steering group for digital research in humanities, arts and
architecture, social and information sciences.
These have been done by CCNMTL, CDRS, and LDPD, but not DHC.
We are hoping to develop internal fellowships for course releases for faculty who wish to work with us, and for graduate
students with projects that are a good fit with our expertise. But, currently, we lean mostly on external funding (mainly
NEH).
