Abstract
The University of Kentucky Libraries (UKL) requests funding from the National
Endowment for the Humanities to digitize 100,000 newspaper pages of historic Kentucky
newspapers for inclusion in Chronicling America and the Kentucky Digital Newspaper
Program (KDNP). During this 2023-2025 NDNP grant cycle, UKL will identify and digitize-
from-microfilm historic Kentucky newspapers from underrepresented populations and/or
counties and out-of-copyright German-language volumes from across Kentucky. The
KDNP will convey 100,000 digitized newspaper pages, microfilm assets, title essays,
page, issue, and title metadata, and all batch deliverables to the Library of Congress.
