Scholarship opportunity



SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY FOR THE GEORGIA ARCHIVES INSTITUTE

The Society of Georgia Archivists each year awards a scholarship for
attendance at the Georgia Archives Institute held each summer in
Atlanta. The purpose of the scholarship is to enhance archival
education and membership. The scholarship is named for Carroll Hart,
former director of the Georgia Department of Archives and History,
founding member of the Society of Georgia Archivists, and founder of
the Georgia Archives Institute.

The scholarship will cover an amount equal to the noncredit tuition
for the Institute but not to exceed $500, and a year's membership in
the Society of Georgia Archivists. Please note that individuals must
also apply separately to the Georgia Archives Institute
(http://www.soga.org/gai.html).

Eligibility

Individuals eligible to compete for the scholarship are those engaged
in compensated or volunteer archival work at any level in an
institution in the state of Georgia, SGA members employed outside the
state of Georgia, graduate students preparing for a career in archives
at a college or university in Georgia, or SGA student members studying
outside the state of Georgia. Preferences will be given to applicants
who do not have access to institutional support for attending the
Georgia Archives Institute. Individuals may apply or be nominated by a
supervisor or instructor.
