ABOUT
Starting in 2008, the Society of Georgia Archivists will each year award a scholarship to attend the SGA-sponsored Pre-Conference Workshop. The Pre-Conference Workshop is held in conjunction with the SGA Annual Meeting at various locations around the state of Georgia. Previous workshops have addressed a variety of themes and issues faced by archivists and archival institutions, including electronic records, exhibits, donor relations, digital collections, and funding. The purpose of the Pre-Conference Workshop and this scholarship is to enhance archival education. The scholarship was named by SGA members at the 2007 SGA Annual Meeting in honor of long-time member Tony Dees.
The registration fee for the awarded applicant will be waived by the Society of Georgia Archivists. When the annual meeting is held in person, recipients are responsible for any travel fees associated with attending the workshop. However, in 2020, both the workshop and the annual meeting are being held virtually.
