South Dakota Heritage Fund (South Dakota State Historical Society)

The South Dakota Heritage Fund, along with the Association of South Dakota Museums, will use grant funds to do a comprehensive assessment survey of the historical collections within South Dakota. The project will develop an overall picture of the state's collections, set up a method for sharing expertise and resources to care for them, and plan for emergency and disaster training. Collections data from on-site and electronic surveys would be compiled into a database for future reference and planning.
