The Hagley Center for the History of Business Technology and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library in Wilmington Delaware is proud to announce its Oral History Project Grant. Grant awards can be up to $5,000. Funds can be used to cover the costs associated with conducting oral history interviews including mileage, trains, air fare, food, lodging, and equipment. Interviews must be conducted in English in accordance with the Oral History Association’s standards as well as Hagley’s own. Projects must augment the Library’s collecting priorities in business history; details may be found at https://www.hagley.org/donate-hagley-library.
Our current grant recipient, Kevin Bunch, is conducting research on RCA and the early history of video games.
Applications are due on June 1 and December 1.
