The University of Maryland, College Park will receive $160,000 from the National Archives and Records Administration under the National Historical Publications and Records Grants program to support the Freedmen and Southern Society Project on the History of Emancipation. Specifically, project staff will advance pre-publication work for Volume 7 on law and justice, continue editorial work for Volume 8 on family and kinship, and commence work on the final Volume 9 covering school, church, and community. An annotated selection of documents will also be added to the project's website to increase public access and use of these historical materials. The one-year grant period extends from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2023 to support these activities related to the preservation and publication of important documentary sources in United States history.
