Furthermore Program Offers Grants in Nonfiction Publishing

An initiative of the J.M. Kaplan Fund, the Furthermore program supports
nonfiction book publishing about the city; natural and historic resources;
art, architecture, and design; cultural history; and civil liberties and
other public issues.

The program seeks work that appeals to an informed general audience; gives
evidence of high standards in editing, design, and production; promises a
reasonable shelf life; might not otherwise achieve top quality or even come
into being; and "represents a contribution without which we would be the
poorer."

Applicants must be 501(c)(3) organizations. Grant recipients have included
civic and academic institutions, museums, independent and university
presses, and professional societies. Trade publishers and public agencies
may apply for grants in partnership with an eligible nonprofit sponsor.
Applications from individuals are not accepted.

Grants range from $500 to approximately $15,000 each and may support
writing, research, editing, design, indexing, photography, illustration, and
printing and binding.

See the Furthermore Web site: http://www.furthermore.org/  for complete
program information and application form.
