[Keri Towery]

Thornton W. Mitchell Service Award


Established in 2003, the Thornton W. Mitchell Service Award seeks to
recognize an individual who has demonstrated outstanding service to the
archival profession in the state of North Carolina by promoting public
awareness, appreciation, or support of cultural heritage institutions,
preserving historical and cultural resources, providing leadership in
archival organizations or associations, or teaching, training, or
mentoring new members of the archival profession.

The award honors the late Thornton W. Mitchell, who served as North
Carolina State Archivist from 1973 until his retirement in 1981, and was
an active member of the archival profession for forty years. The first
Thornton W. Mitchell Service Award was presented at the SNCA spring
meeting in March 2004. The deadline for nominations is July 31, 2007
(please note that the nomination form lists the deadline as the Spring
Meeting, but nominations will be extended through July 31, 2007).

Nominees must have at least 5 years of service to the profession, and
may not be members of the current SNCA Executive Board or Development
Committee. Nominations should include specific examples of ways in which
the nominee meets the criteria outlined above.
