The California Heritage Preservation Commission is accepting nominations for
the Archivist Award of Excellence to honor individuals who have done
exceptional work in the archives and records management field within
California.

Topics as diverse as developing a major outreach program, conducting
conservation projects, establishing a model program, overcoming obstacles in
program development, providing significant financial support, or recruiting
community support for an archival program may be considered.  The Archivist
Award of Excellence is sponsored annually by the Board of Trustees of the
Golden State Museum Public Benefit Corporation.

The Archivist Award of Excellence was established in 1989 by the California
Heritage Preservation Commission, which serves as an advisory body to the
California State Archives, felt there was a need to recognize outstanding
work done within the state. Lynn A. Bonfield, Director of the Labor Archives
and Research Center at San Francisco State University and Victoria
Yturralde, Photo Archivist for the California Department of Parks and
Recreation were the recipients of the 1998 Archivist Award of Excellence.
