CARBONDFALE — The Board of Trustees of Southern Illinois University was one of 11 organizations across Illinois to get a grant from the Illinois State Historical Records Advisory Board (ISHRAB), overseen by Illinois Secretary of State and State Archivist Alexi Giannoulias, to digitize, preserve and expand access to archival materials that document Illinois’ cultural heritage.

The grants support projects that make historically significant records — from rare photographs and correspondence to community bulletins, board proceedings and film collections — more accessible to the public through online platforms.
