ABOUT: Grants of $1,500 each are available to support the costs of publishing a manuscript (monography, edited book, or journal article) of original humanities scholarship. This grant is intended to cover costs for substantive enhancements to the manuscript which are essential for publication. Eligible enhancements include costs associated with producing graphics and figures, maps, tables and diagrams, copyright permissions, and translation costs. Lesser priority will be given to requests for the funding of indexing costs. All manuscripts must be accepted for publication or in press when the request is submitted. This grant is not available retroactively for works that have already been printed. We ask that applicants for all Glasscock Center grants read our Climate and Inclusion Statement here.

Publications receiving support must acknowledge “The Melbern G. Glasscock Center for Humanities Research.”

ELIGIBILITY: All faculty and graduate students at Texas A&M University whose work is in the humanities in alignment with the Glasscock Center mission.

ADDITIONAL MATERIALS: Please upload the following items to the application form or email as an attachment to glasscock@tamu.edu:

Acceptance letter from the press or, preferably, a letter indicating the current publication status of the manuscript
Letter or electronic correspondence from the press, editing service, or other appropriate service indicating the anticipated costs for which funding is sought
