NHPRC Funding Increased
The Congress and President Clinton have approved legislation giving the NHPRC $5.5 million in grant funds for fiscal year 1998. The appropriation for NHPRC grants, contained in an appropriations bill for the Treasury, Postal Service, and General Government, increases NHPRC funding by $500,000. The appropriation was accompanied by a recommendation that the NHPRC consider a grant of $100,000 to the Alaska gold rush records inventory and access project, a statewide cooperative community effort to identify and process such records in connection with the celebration of the centennial of the Alaska Gold Rush of 1898.
