ADD YOUR VOICE – MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
The Records Preservation and Access Coalition (RPAC) is hosting its second Family History Hill Day on 9 April 2025. RPAC advocates and others in the genealogy community are invited to attend the event and meet Members of Congress and their staff in Washington, D.C. Our focus in 2025 will be on funding for the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Find out more here.
REGISTRATION WINDOW ANNOUNCED
The Genealogical Institute on Federal Records (Gen-Fed) has announced that applications will be accepted from February 8 to 21. The live random drawing will be held on February 22. This year’s application process includes several changes to the rules surrounding the application and registration process. If you’ve attended or even just applied to Gen-Fed previously, you’ll definitely want to be aware of these changes. Read the updates on their website, here.
GRANTS FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ARCHIVES
The Mellon Foundation is accepting proposals for grants ($25,000 to $100,000) to provide funding for Operational costs, including staff, space, and utilities; Collections care, including the acquisition of new materials, physical and digital storage fees, and access and preservation efforts; AND Programming activities, including events, exhibitions, and increased community usage.
Organizations must be located in the US or one of its territories; have 501(c)3 tax-exempt status or be a federally recognized Indian tribe; have an existing archive or an archiving initiative with an annual operating budget of at least $12,500; and have an established and actively collecting archive that has been in operation for two or more years. Organizations must submit a registration request by March 12, and apply for the grant by March 28 at 5 pm ET. The details and link are on our Awards/Grants/Scholarships page.
NO MORE ‘MORE’
After another email from someone who was concerned they didn’t see their event on the calendar, I made a small adjustment with a big impact : removed the tiny MORE button from the Main Calendar view. Now EVERY event on EVERY day shows in the Calendar View. Each and every one of the thousands of events on the calendar are clearly visible on the Main calendar. I personally still prefer the Agenda view, but you can easily switch between views to find what works best for you. (Calendar view is the default on the Main calendar page. Agenda is the default on the Virtual calendar page).
FREE TO REUSE ART
If you need a new source of free-to-use, copyright-free, public domain images, check out the Public Domain Image Archive. It contains over 10,000 historical images that are completely free to search and to reuse. You can read their “About” and “Sources” tabs to learn where the images are from.
NEWS FROM THE NATIONAL GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY
> NGS MAGAZINE: The January-March 2025 issue of the NGS Magazine is available online for members now. The theme of the issue is the Ohio Valley, and the magazine is full of excellent articles on topics like the Draper Manuscripts, Ohio’s unique land records, and more. There’s also a survey of the collections of the Filson Historical Society — a resource that you might spend some time at if you’re in Louisville for the NGS Conference in May. Members can access the digital version here.
> AT THE PRINTER: The highly anticipated new book from NGS, Forensic Genealogy Theory & Practice, by Michael S. Ramage and Catherine B.W. Desmarais, has made its way to the printer, and should be shipping in the near future. The book is the first comprehensive textbook on this field of study and offers professional genealogists a deep dive into the specialty areas and skills required to build a career as a forensic genealogist. Find out more about it and pre-order your copy here.
> JAN 30 NEW ‘ORGCONNECTS’ – A “Town Hall Conversation on Organization Membership and Building Our Community” virtual program will be January 30 at 8 pm Eastern.

If you didn’t get the email or have question, please contact
