The Modern Endangered Archives Program (MEAP) is a UCLA Library granting program funded by Arcadia.

We aim to digitize and make accessible endangered archival materials from the 20th and 21st Centuries, including print, photographic, film, audio, ephemeral, and born digital objects. 

MEAP is dedicated to:

  • Providing open access to cultural and historical materials from around the world as a challenge to politicized and nationalized historical narratives that minimize or silence multiple voices and perspectives.

  • Enabling digital preservation of at-risk cultural heritage from parts of the world with limited resources for archival preservation.

  • Expanding the capacity for digital preservation around the world and building a culture of open access.

 

Funding for Cohort 5 confirmed!

A new Call for Applications (2022-23) will open in September 2022.

  • Hold the Date - Open Webinar for all Applicants: Thursday, Oct 13, 2022
  • Preliminary Applications Due: Monday, Nov 14, 2022
