Ohio Archives Passport Update: Please send us your information
In 2017 SOA began compiling information about Ohio archival repositories to put
together a statewide "passport" broken down by region. Last year we collected
updates and new entries and the 2018 passport included information for more
than 80 sites across the state!
The ultimate goal is to have an up-to-date resource for researchers and fellow
archivists that can provide information about available resources, promote, and
raise awareness about Ohio archives in general. I am sharing the link to the
current 2018-2019 Ohio Archives Passport for people to review their information
from last year, submit edits and changes, and submit NEW previously unlisted
information on repositories as needed:
http://www.ohioarchivists.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/SOAOhioArchivesPassport2018.pdf<https://ohiohistory.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=37ce5c8c24208a588c681edc5&id=049879d6a5&e=7c27674cc0>
If you know of any repositories around you that should be included and that
might not be reached through the listserv or via member email, please consider
reaching out to them directly to encourage them to submit. There may be small
all-volunteer or limited hour local archives and/or research library that would
like people to know that they exist; they would benefit from being included!
We'd like to publish the 2019-2020 update on the SOA website by October for
Archives Month, so it would be great to be able to list any planned Archives
Month events as well. If you have events like lectures, open houses, a local
archives crawl, tours, etc. planned for October, please share that information
so it can be included! If you haven't planned anything yet, please think about
doing something during the month of October to promote your archive.
The link to the passport can be shared freely to help promote and raise
awareness and can be easily printed for those wishing to encourage researchers
to participate in an archives "crawl" by visiting multiple sites.
If you need to make changes to your current listing or if you are NOT currently
listed and want to be included in the update, please email all necessary
information to nataliemfritz3@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:nataliemfritz3@xxxxxxxxx> by
August 31.
Repositories should submit:
Name
Address
Phone Number
Public Hours
Website
Social Media
