-
Write short, clear paragraphs.
- This is especially true for the Project Description and Expected Results.
- Avoid repetition.
- Ensure your application responds to the project assessment criteria.
- In order to evaluate results, it is important to describe planned activities clearly, specifying measurable outcomes, and to maintain consistency and coherence in the measurements used in the various reports.
- Make sure the dollars and dates match in your budget and timeline forms.
- Participate in our information sessions.
- If you’re planning a digitization project, refer to our Digitization project checklist.
