The above title, "How to Get a Grant from NEH," is not my own, but from an article in the July/August issue of Humanities magazine, now available online at the NEH Web site.  If you've not had the opportunity to attend a grants workshop or discuss a project with a program officer, this is a great introduction to some of the most important--and often most overlooked--bits of advice when applying for a grant (such as "Read the guidelines!").  Also included is an overview of the review process, an introduction to Grants.gov, and the reminder that NEH program officers are always available to answer questions.  Highly recommended reading for all potential applicants.

We are happy to announce that the NEH and the DFG will be offering two new joint grant programs. The guidelines will be available shortly [edit: the Digitization Guidelines are now available], but in the meantime, please see the NEH/DFG release below:
