By now, you've probably heard that the Illinois State Historical Records Advisory Board (ISHRAB) is offering scholarships to Illinois archivists and archival volunteers to attend a professional archival workshop, seminar, or conference held in Illinois. You can be awarded up to a maximum of $200! If not check it out:
