SAA Diversity Award

Established in 2011 and intended to address SAA’s Strategic Priority on
Diversity, this award recognizes an individual, group, or institution for
outstanding contributions in advancing diversity within the archives
profession, SAA, or the archival record. Nominees will have demonstrated
significant achievement in the form of activism, education, outreach,
publication, service, or other initiatives in the archives field. The award is
given based on the long-term impact on improving and promoting diversity as
defined in the SAA Statement on Diversity. Open to an individual, group, or
organization, preference may be given to SAA individual or institutional
members. Up to two awards may be given each year. The prize will include a
certificate and one complimentary registration per awardee to the SAA
Annual Meeting occurring in the year in which the award is presented. In
addition to a completed nomination form, each nomination must include two
letters of support. Nominations will be accepted from any individual,
group, or institution.
