Cross-posted. Please excuse duplication.

The Ohio Digital Network<https://ohiodigitalnetwork.org/> and the Ohio Public Library Information Network (OPLIN)<https://www.oplin.ohio.gov/> are once again collaborating to offer a special award for Ohio History Day<https://www.ohiohistory.org/learn/education/in-your-classroom/ohio-history-day> projects.

The Ohio Digitized Archives Researcher Award recognizes one outstanding Junior and one Senior Ohio History Day project demonstrating effective use of digitized resources created by Ohio's cultural heritage institutions-public libraries, educational institutions, museums and historical societies-made available through the Ohio Digital Network's collections in the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA)<https://dp.la/search?partner=%22Ohio%20Digital%20Network%22> or an institution's own website. The project should demonstrate that the researcher has developed their own questions and ideas about their topic, has expanded the variety of resources they consult, has evaluated those sources for usefulness and bias, and has applied them to their research questions with sufficient citation for others to find those sources again.

There are several other Special Award programs for Ohio History Day as well! Do you know a student interested in applying for a Special Award at the state competition? See a list of available awards:
