Today NEH Office of Digital Humanities and NEH Division of Research announced a new program to make outstanding digital humanities books widely available by funding the creation of open access monographs.
The Fellowships Open Book Program has several enhanced features, many of which were suggested by the field:
The program uses a simple, streamlined application process, making it easy for university presses and other eligible publishers to apply.
Under the terms of the award, publishers receive $5500 to offset costs of releasing an open access edition.
Of the total award, $500 is set aside as a royalty payment to the author(s).
The program will have three deadlines per year, so publishers can apply and hear back quickly.
Publishers can apply for the grant for forthcoming titles or titles that have been published within the past three years.
The FOBP is a partnership between the NEH’s Office of Digital Humanities and the Division of Research Programs. Details about the grant program can be found on the NEH website at https://www.neh.gov/grants/odh/FOBP.
