Cash grants of up to $15,000 are provided to assist in the preservation and access to these collections. Organisations may apply for more than one project provided the combined value is no more than $15,000 and can be completed within one year.

The program is funded by the Australian Government and managed by the National Library of Australia, with support provided by the Department of Regional Australia, Local Government, Arts and Sport; the National Archives of Australia; the National Film and Sound Archive and the National Museum of Australia.
