<p class="MsoNormal">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 (or an online professional
archival development course). These funds are provided by a State Board Programming Grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission.<span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Awards will be made in an amount up to $200 per applicant per fiscal year to reimburse costs for registration, housing, and/or travel to the event. ISHRAB and its representatives will award scholarships on a first-come, first-served basis
until the funding is exhausted. All decisions made by the ISHRAB and its representatives will be final.<o:p></o:p></p>
