Opportunity Summary:
The NLM Grants for Scholarly Works in Biomedicine and Health (G13) program is a discretionary grant opportunity from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), specifically through the National Library of Medicine (NLM), designed to support the creation of substantial scholarly publications in biomedicine and health. The core purpose is to fund the preparation of book-length manuscripts and other major scholarly works that have clear value for audiences in the United States, including health professionals, public health officials, biomedical researchers, and historians of the health sciences. In practice, this means the program is aimed less at funding new lab or clinical research projects and more at helping qualified authors develop authoritative, well-researched works that synthesize knowledge, interpret developments in the field, or contribute meaningful historical or scholarly analysis relevant to health and medicine.
This opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number PAR-13-014 and falls under the “Grant†funding instrument type, with funding activity categories listed under education and health. The associated CFDA number is 93.879 (Medical Library Assistance), which reflects NLMs broader mission of advancing access to and understanding of biomedical information. The opportunity was posted and created on October 31, 2012, with an original and final closing date of February 20, 2014, and it was archived on March 23, 2014. While the notice is archived and therefore not currently open, the details still illustrate how NLM structured support for scholarly writing and may be useful as a reference for similar or successor NIH/NLM programs.
The award ceiling for this program is $50,000, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. That structure tends to make the program more accessible to authors and organizations that may not have institutional resources available to meet a match requirement, which is especially relevant for work like book projects that often involve sustained writing time, specialized research assistance, permissions, indexing, or other publication-related costs.
Eligibility was broad and included many types of domestic U.S. entities across government, education, nonprofit, and private sectors. Eligible applicants included state governments; county and city or township governments; special district governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; independent school districts; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (again, other than institutions of higher education); small businesses; and other for-profit organizations that are not small businesses. The announcement also explicitly highlighted additional eligible applicant categories such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), as well as faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, and U.S. territories or possessions. At the same time, the program made clear that foreign institutions were not eligible, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations were not eligible, and foreign components (as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement) were not allowed, reinforcing that the program was intended to directly support U.S.-based scholarship for U.S. professional and research communities.
For applicants or institutions looking for more specifics, the full announcement was hosted through the NIH grants guide at the link provided in the notice (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-13-014.html). The contact information included the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster email for access or linking issues, indicating that technical help for retrieving the announcement was handled through NIH OER support channels rather than a program officer contact listed in the summary text provided.
