SOA’s Archives Month activity is managed by the Advocacy and Outreach Committee.
O-H-I-Olympics – 2024
October is American Archives Month and we hope you are all thinking of ways to celebrate your own Ohio archives! You can highlight and share your own archive during Archives Month with things like special talks and programming, exhibits, tours, and more!
You should be receiving (or have received) your Ohio Archives month poster in the mail. We hope you display it proudly in your archive for people to see!
The 2024 theme is O-H-I-Olympics. Thank you again to all those who submitted images for consideration!
