<br>
Established in 1989, this award honors an individual, institution, or organization that promotes greater public awareness, appreciation, or support of archival activities or programs. The individual's or institution's contributions may take the form of advocacy,
 publicity, legislation, financial support, or a similar action that fosters archival work or raises public consciousness of the importance of archival work. Contributions should have broad, long-term impact at the regional level or beyond.<br>
<br>
Eligibility: Nominees must be from outside the archives profession. Individuals directly involved in archival work, either as paid or volunteer staff, or institutions or organizations directly responsible for an archival program are not eligible for this award.<br>
<br>
Nominations should be sent through the online submission system by February 28, 2024 at <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/app.smarterselect.com/programs/45853-Society-Of-American-Archivists__;!!Db6frn15oIvDD3UI!gpNxJuXMxlkdYjsGzFpe8RA7mASKJnlhZmgZjoyV5mqbTEjJ5cI3QjYcLwqkC4sX9YhK0JDoQviFee6sXPAxxyNHHqyaOQ$" target="_blank">https://app.smarterselect.com/programs/45853-Society-Of-American-Archivists</a><br>
