--- ARSC RESEARCH GRANTS PROGRAM ---
Deadline for receipt of applications: February 28, 2017


The ARSC Research Grants Program supports scholarship and publication in the
fields of sound recording research and audio preservation. (This program is
separate from the ARSC Preservation Grants Program, which encourages and
supports the preservation of historically significant sound recordings of
Western Art Music.) Project categories eligible for consideration include:
discography, bibliography, historical studies of the sound recording
industry and its products, and any other subject likely to increase the
public's understanding and appreciation of the lasting importance of
recorded sound. ARSC encourages applications from individuals whose research
forms part of an academic program at the master's or doctoral level.

ARSC members and non-members alike are eligible for grants in amounts up to
$1000. Grant funds can be used to underwrite clerical, editorial, and travel
expenses. Funds may not be used to purchase capital equipment or recordings,
to create recordings (including field recordings), to perform operations on
sound recordings, to reimburse applicants for work already performed, or to
support projects that form part of a paid job. Grant recipients must submit
documentation of their expenses before reimbursement. All grant funds must
be disbursed within eighteen months of the grant award.

Grant recipients are required to submit brief descriptions of their projects
for publication in the ARSC Journal, and are encouraged to submit articles
about their projects, for possible publication in the Newsletter or Journal.

Research Grant Applications shall include:
-- a summary of the project (one page maximum), with samples of the work, if
possible;
-- a budget covering the entire project, highlighting the expenses the ARSC
Grant will cover (one page maximum);
-- a curriculum vitae; and
-- an indication of the prospects for publication or other public
dissemination of the project results.

Applications may be submitted in either of two ways:

Via E-Mail (send the application as a Microsoft Word attachment) to:
arscgra...@aol.com 

or

Via Postal Mail (ship four paper copies and the Microsoft Word file) to:
Suzanne Flandreau
ARSC Grants Committee Chair
621 N. Fifth St
Niles, MI  49120
USA

Applications must be received by February 28, 2017.
