Description

The UCLA Library Modern Endangered Archives Program (MEAP) offers grants to support the documentation and digitization of at-risk global cultural heritage collections. Funded by Arcadia, MEAP has been awarding grants since 2019 to preserve and create access to endangered archival materials from the 20th and 21st Centuries, including print, photographic, film, video, audio, ephemeral, and born-digital objects. 

MEAP invites applications for its ninth cohort of projects designed to preserve, document, and digitize collections at risk from environmental conditions, political uncertainty, inherently unsustainable media, inappropriate storage, or communal and social change. All materials created with MEAP funding will be published on the open access UCLA Library Digital Collections repository.
