Media Projects · $29,996 - Serge Koussevitzky - planning for a television documentary about Serge Koussevitzky, conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, including his work in Russia, Europe and the U.S. and his influence on 20th Century classical music.

Scholarly Editions · $100,000, with an additional match of $50,000 - John Dewey Correspondence - the third volume of a three-volume electronic edition of John Dewey's correspondence covering the years 1871-1952.
