Sources for archival funding: (thought the whole list might
be interested). NEH has a program for "preservation and
access". IMS has a conservation program which funds surveys
as well as specific conservation activities. The Department
of Education used to have an archives program but it was
de-funded this past year, I think. That's about all I know
about on the Federal level. Some states also have programs,
and there are foundations such as Kress which support the
hiring and training of archival interns.
