Between 2014-16, the LPD received funding from the Australian Research Council as part of David McInnis's Discovery Project, "Insights from the Invisible Drama: Shakespeare, Lost Plays and Theatre History, c.1585-1613" (#DP140102297). This funding has been instrumental in securing permissions and enabling the digitisation of numerous unique documents and historical artefacts pertaining to lost plays, as listed here: Licensing Terms for Externally Provided Content. We are grateful to the ARC for this financial support.
