The Mid-Atlantic Regional Archives Conference (MARAC) has awarded Tanya Elder second prize for best Finding Aid of 2012. Ms. Elder is a Senior Archivist at the American Jewish Historical Society here at the Center. She wrote the finding aid for the Mordecai Sheftall Papers. It is over 100 pages long and contains embedded links to every Continental Army provision return within the collection. This collection was processed, microfilmed and digitized with partial funding from the “Save America’s Treasures” federal grant program. Ms. Tanya Elder received her award at the Regional MARAC meeting at the end of April.
