Grants
& Funding
The William E. Foley Research Fellowship
The William E. Foley Research Fellowship was created to
help support the use of public records in scholarly research.
Any researcher with a project that utilizes the holdings
of the Missouri State Archives or its St. Louis branch to
further knowledge of state or national history is eligible
for a reimbursement of up to $2,000 for travel expenses and
duplication fees.
Foley Fellowships are funded by the Friends
of the Missouri State Archives. By supporting this program,
the Friends hopes to encourage scholars to explore the
common heritage of Missourians.
The
Missouri Historical Records Grant Program (MHRGP)
The Missouri Historical Records Grant Program (MHRGP) is a collaborative effort between the Missouri Historical Records Advisory Board (MHRAB) and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission. The program is administered by the Missouri State Archives, Office of the Secretary of State, on behalf of the MHRAB, and provides funding for preservation and access projects throughout the state.
Grant funding is available to all of Missouri’s public and private records repositories that care for documents of significant historical value. This includes historical, ethnic, and religious societies; museums; libraries; colleges and universities; and local government entities. MHRGP awards may be used for approved records management and preservation projects, such as conservation services, consulting, indexing and description of collections, and the purchase of archival supplies and equipment.
Since its creation in 2001, the MHRGP has given over one half million dollars to Missouri’s historical records repositories. The list of grant recipients from each grant cycle is below.
