DIGITIZING JANM'S COLLECTIONS [THE JAPANESE AMERICAN NATIONAL MUSEUM (JANM) SEEKS NEH FUNDING TO DIGITIZE UP TO 10,000 ITEMS FROM ITS EXTENSIVE PERMANENT COLLECTION, WHICH CHRONICLES THE JAPANESE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE FROM THE 19TH CENTURY TO TODAY. DESPITE THEIR SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS, JAPANESE AMERICANS ARE OFTEN OVERLOOKED IN MAINSTREAM HISTORICAL NARRATIVES. JANM AIMS TO RECTIFY THIS BY MAKING ITS COLLECTION ACCESSIBLE TO RESEARCHERS, SCHOLARS, EDUCATORS, AND THE PUBLIC. WHAT SETS JANM?S COLLECTION APART IS ITS FOCUS ON THE LIVES OF ORDINARY INDIVIDUALS WITH EXTRAORDINARY STORIES, CREATING A COMMUNITY ARCHIVE RICH IN ARTIFACTS THAT RESONATE UNIVERSALLY. THE SELECTED ITEMS FOR DIGITIZATION EXPLORE THEMES CRUCIAL TO SCHOLARLY INQUIRY, INCLUDING IMMIGRATION, GRASSROOTS ACTIVISM, AND CULTURAL ENRICHMENT BY IMMIGRANT AND MINORITY COMMUNITIES. BY DIGITIZING THESE ARTIFACTS, JANM WILL SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE HUMANITIES EDUCATION, SCHOLARSHIP, AND RESEARCH AND PROMOTE A MORE INCLUSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF AMERICAN HISTORY.]
