FRANKFORT, KY (3 Aug 2015) – The Kentucky Oral History Commission (KOHC) is accepting grant applications to help fund oral history projects on topics of significance to Kentucky, transcription and indexing of existing oral history interviews or preservation of existing oral history interviews.



KOHC project grants help support the creation of Kentucky oral history research projects. Amateur and professional oral historians may apply.

KOHC transcription and indexing grants help support the transcription or indexing of existing oral history interviews whose subject matter KOHC considers to be a priority research topic and which are located in Kentucky repositories. Organizations that use an indexing-based access platform receive priority.

First-time applicants are strongly encouraged to submit a draft application. Draft applications for both grant types are due September 21, 2015, with final applications due October 5, 2015.

Information and applications for these and other KOHC grants are at www.history.ky.gov/kchc-grants
