Up to $1300 in funding for free registrations is available through the Shirley Spragge Bursary for students, new professionals, and archivists in financial need. To qualify for the bursary you must be an Ontario resident, and be either: * A student enrolled in a recognized archival program (must submit proof of enrollment), or * A recent (1-3 years) graduate of a recognized archival program (must submit proof of program completion), or * A practicing or volunteer archivist in financial need (must submit proof of employment or volunteering).
