The Society of Georgia Archivists (SGA) was established in 1969 to foster a community of archivists, librarians, historians, educators, and museum and historical agency personnel in the state of Georgia and the southeast. SGA fosters and supports the archival community by advocating for professionals, collections, and repositories; encouraging diversity in the field; promoting education and professional development; and advancing scholarly research and innovation through the publication of our journal, Provenance.




SGA is dedicated to creating opportunities for students to learn more about the field of archives by offering educational events, networking, and career development activities. Membership in SGA also provides a solid connection to information about current archival and historical trends and issues as well as opportunities to associate with and learn from leading individuals in the field.

Membership for full-time students is only $10 annually. Benefits of membership include discounted annual meeting and workshop fees, access to the SGA listserv and online job postings, SGA's Mentoring Program, as well as subscriptions to the SGA publications Provenance and the SGA Newsletter.
