Dear SOA Members,

I can't believe we're just a few short weeks away from the SOA Annual Conference! I'm proud that, despite the small size of our organization, we're once again able to offer a hybrid conference - and am excited about this year's program (full schedule and registration links available here<https://ohioarchivists.org/annual_conference>) focused on archival sustainability, donor relations, grant writing and management, and building strong organizational partnerships. In addition to a slate of engaging sessions led by professionally diverse cultural heritage workers, SOA will also host two Crucial Conversations: one on funding JEDAI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Accessibility, and Inclusion) initiatives, and another on archival work and advocacy amid today's shifting political landscape.

I believe that SOA conferences are a valuable opportunity to connect with colleagues from across the state, exchange ideas, and leave with fresh inspiration and practical strategies. Along with the professional development, you'll enjoy lunch and refreshments with fellow attendees and have the chance to support our scholarship program through the annual silent auction.

Best wishes, and I hope to see many of you in Toledo!

Matt Francis
President, Society of Ohio Archivists
