Open Society Institute's Information Program Announces New
Guidelines for Unsolicited Grants Process
Deadline: September 30 and December 31, 2006
The Open Society Institute's Information Program
( http://www.soros.org/initiatives/information/about/ ) has
announced application instructions for grantseeking organiza-
tions that aim to enhance the ability to access, exchange,
and produce knowledge and information; and to use new tools
and techniques to empower civil society. Projects supported
by the program are intended to benefit developing and tran-
sition countries.
As a general rule, the Information Program prefers to receive
grant applications made on behalf of an organization rather than
an individual. The program also prefers to fund project proposals rather
than core funding requests. Funded activities in the past
have included information and knowledge capacity-building events;
technology and policy analysis; advocacy campaigns; and innova-
tive projects that test new ground.
The Information Program funds projects within three main focus
areas:
Access to Knowledge;
Civil Society Communication; and
Open Information Policy.
The Information Program will review unsolicited proposals four
times during 2006: the remaining deadlines for submission are
September 30 and December 31, 2006. Proposals must be submitted
in English.
The program requests that applicants submit proposal outlines,
rather than sending fully developed proposals. Visit the OSI
Web site for complete program information and submission
requirements.

3. Digital Document Quarterly newsletter volume 5 number 2 is out

The Digital Document Quarterly newsletter volume 5 number 2 is available
at <http://home.pacbell.net/hgladney/ddq_5_2.htm>
http://home.pacbell.net/hgladney/ddq_5_2.htm
In its Digital Preservation section it contains short summaries and links
to recent assessment reports of more than usual interest. This continues
with questions about the U.S. NDIIPP at mid-point and then brief
introductions to archiving software that I believe attention-worthy.
DDQ 5(2) continues with a section on two philosophical topics: (a) why
epistemology is, in my opinion, pertinent to the design of preservation
solutions, and (b) the changing relationship between philosophy and the
exact sciences.
In addition to the usual News and Practical Matters for personal computing
sections, there are book recommendations: John Barry's The Great Influenza
and Lewis Carroll's Sylvie and Bruno.
Best wishes, Henry

4. TAPE workshop ` Audiovisual Preservation for Culture, Heritage and
Academic Collections', London , UK, 10 November 2006: preliminary
announcement
Audiovisual Preservation for Culture, Heritage and Academic Collections A
One-Day course of what you need to know - and who! Preliminary
announcement
Seventy percent of all audiovisual material is under immediate threat of
deterioration, damage or o bsolescence - and seventy percent of collection
managers don't know it. Surveys have found serious
shortages of trained staff and equipment, and an even more serious
shortage of concerted preservat
ion actions. The immediate needs are: awareness - and help.
This one day course will provide basic information on the problems of
audiovisual material, what to
do about them - and where to get help and more information. The targets
are culture, heritage and academic collections, to focus on a group of
people and collections with broadly similar issues an
d solutions.
