*Please note the change in the number of awards. Thank you to the Ohio
Preservation Council!*


The Society of Ohio Archivists (SOA) is pleased to announce five
scholarships available to students (2 awards), and new archival
professionals (2 awards) with three years or less experience in the
workplace. The final scholarship, the Ohio Preservation Council Student/New
Professional Scholarship, is available to either students or new
professionals.

The scholarship consists of registration to the SOA Annual Meeting
(including lunch), a one-year membership to SOA, and a $100 travel stipend.
Awardees are required to submit a photograph and write about their
experience for publication in the Ohio Archivist newsletter. The winner of
the OPC Scholarship will also submit their write-up to the OPC and may
choose to present about their experience at an OPC quarterly meeting.

 Applications should include the following information:

*       Applicant's name, mailing address, and e-mail address.

*       Students should list their school's name and academic program;

*       New professionals should list their employer and number of years
working within the field;

*       Description about how the meeting will benefit the applicant
professionally;

*       Brief description of the applicant's scholarship and contribution
to archives. This will be taken into consideration along with the
applicant's number of years in the field or academic study;

*       Statement of the applicant's need for financial support to attend
the conference;

*       *Applications are due by April 8, 2022.*

Applications and inquiries can be sent via e-mail or mail to Stephanie
Shreffler, sshreffler1 at udayton.edu, Roesch Library RM 304A, 300 College
Park, Dayton, OH 45469-1360.

The awards will be presented at the Society of Ohio Archivists Annual
meeting, which is planned to be held in-person in Columbus on May 20, 2022.

*To help ensure the safety of our community, the Society of Ohio Archivists
strongly urges that all registrants wear a mask regardless of vaccine
status. While masks are not required by Columbus Metropolitan Library, we
strongly suggest they be worn, especially when in crowded rooms, for the
health and safety of our community. The Society of Ohio Archivists will
continue to monitor CDC guidelines, Columbus Metropolitan Library policies,
and the City of Columbus mandates. Public health measures are changing
rapidly, and SOA will continue to evaluate and update these protocols to be
in-line with recommended standards as we get closer to the event. Please
check back regularly for the most up to date information.*
