The SOA Advocacy & Outreach Committee is encouraging repositories across
the state to participate in the annual “I Found It In the Archives”
contest. This contest is a collective effort to reach out to individuals
who have found their records, families, heritage, and treasures through the
collections in our repositories.

Ask your patrons, your friends, and people you’ve met to share their
stories of discovery. Set up a contest, select the best entries, and allow
others in the online world to vote for their favorites. *Local winning
entries should be submitted to Ken Grossi, ken.grossi@xxxxxxxxxxx
<ken.grossi@xxxxxxxxxxx>, by August 1, 2017*. Your local winner will join
others in the state competition, culminating in late August.

The winner of the state competition will have an opportunity to share their
story at the Fall OHLA/SOA meeting in October 2017.

This is a great opportunity to promote your collections through your
website, blog, and social media sites. Each person who clicks on your
repository’s website learns about your repository and what you do! This is
a great outreach tool! Customizable forms and promotional material can be
found on the SOA website, http://www.ohioarchivists.org/

Thanks and have a good weekend!
