Request for Donations

Even though the Governor announced that he is restoring $125,000 to the Archives' budget so that it can remain open for
the rest of this fiscal year, our fight for restoration of the Archives' budget is not over. To ensure the Archives is returned
to the model Archives it once was and be open five days a week, we need to convince our state senators and representatives
that the Archives' budget needs at least $5.4 million.
For the last four or five years, the Archives' budget has
been cut, and the cuts have been more and more drastic. The Friends of the Georgia Archives and History (FOGAH) and the Coalition
to Save the Archives has tried to work with the legislatures to restore funding to the Archives with no success. Because
the legislative and budget process is complex and requires specialized expertise and contacts with appropriate officials,
FOGAH and the Coalition has hired Joe Tanner and Associates to help. We've already seen positive results.
The
consultant's fee is estimated at $25,000 for the year. The fee was not anticipated and thus not in the FOGAH budget.
You can assist by making a donation to FOGAH for the "Save the Archives" fund. Please send a check to FOGAH,
5800 Jonesboro Road, Morrow GA 30260. Or, click on the Donate tab to pay by credit card through PayPal.

Update by the President6 May 2013
|
|
 Governor Deal signed HB 287 on Monday, 6 May 2013, at 1:30 p.m., officially transferring the Archives from the Secretary of
State’s office to the University System of Georgia. About twenty supporters, including Chancellor Hank Hukaby, witnessed
the ceremony. |
President's Update
22 March 2013
|
|
The Georgia Senate voted 21 March 2013, 46 to 0 on HB 287 to transfer the Georgia Archives to the Board of Regents. As you
recall earlier this month the bill passed the House 170 to 0. This means the bill is now going to the Governor for his signature,
and the transfer will be in effect on 1 July 2013.
Also on 21 March 2013, the Senate Appropriations Committee
voted an additional $76,000 or so dollars added to the House Appropriations Committee vote of $224,113 a week or so ago. The
additional funds of $300,000 (total) will have to be brought before the Conference Committee to work out the difference or
agree on the higher total. They will meet next week before the session ends on 28 March to work out the final amount
of the increase in the budget for the Archives. This vote will determine how many new staff they can hire and thus how many
days they can be open.
While it is very good news that the Senate chose to increase the funding for the Georgia
Archives, this final weekend before the session ends will be most important in letting key leaders know how important this
additional funding is and how important the Archives mission is to you and to all Georgians interested in preserving our history
and our records, and having adequate access to these records.
Please take the time to contact members of
the Conference Committee. Members are expected to be:
House of Representatives: Terry England,
Jan Jones, and Larry O'Neal
Senate: Jack Hill, Ronnie Chance, and David Shafer
If you know any
of these folks or live in their districts, please contact them and encourage them to add the additional funding of $300,000
to the Archives' budget.

House Bill 287 " to reassign the Division of Archives and History of the Office of the Secretary of State and transfer
governance thereof to the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia . . . " has been introduced. Read
the full text of the bill at the Georgia General Assembly website.

Update from the President
28 January
|
|
Although the recent articles in the newspapers are largely accurate concerning the Governor’s proposed budget,
the ten positions mentioned include the existing five Records Center employees. No new positions were proposed for the Archives.
The proposed budget does not increase the funding nor positions.
We appreciate and support the Governor’s
proposal to transfer the Archives to the University System of Georgia and are looking toward a brighter future for the Archives.
The Chancellor has created a transition team and I was invited to be a member to represent the interests of the Friends of
the Georgia Archives and the larger community of supporters of the Archives. The Chancellor and the University System
of Georgia are committed to significant improvements to the Archives and we support that commitment. We are very optimistic!
|
Update by the President
|
|
It is critical that at least one person, preferably one of their constituents, contact every senator and representative
in the state to encourage them to support the Governor’s recommendation that the Archives move from the Secretary of
State to the University System of Georgia and to support an increase in the Archives budget. The idea budget increase
is $1.15 million.
It is particularly critical that we identify constituents of Senator Jack Hill (District
4, Reidsville), and Representatives Terry England (District 116, Auburn), Jan Jones (District 46, Milton), Larry O’Neal
(District 146, Bonaire), and Donna Sheldon (District 105, Dacula). At this point no one has volunteered to contact them.
If you would be willing to contact any legislator, especially those mentioned above, please send an email to
diannebc@bellsouth.net and someone will be in touch with you very quickly.

Help Contact Senators and Representatives
|
|
Message from Dianne Cannestra, President of FOGAH When
we all thought the Archives was closing to the public, we all responded and did everything we could think of to do to keep
that from happening. The crisis did not end when the Governor announced that he recommended the Archives be moved to
the University System. His recommendation has to be voted on by the General Assembly and adequate funding must be provided.
It is vitally important that every senator and every representative be contacted and given the same message.
If you were unable to attend one of the advocacy training webinars, you can find the slides on the FOGAH Website. The
slides include information about how to contact your senator and your representative. They also include the message
that each legislator needs to hear.
More than 150 senators and representatives, listed below, need to be
contacted. Visitng or calling your sentator and representatives will only take an hour or two of your time, and the
future of the Archives hang in the balance. Our goal is to have every legislator contacted. Please make a commitment
to be one of the volunteers by contacting me (diannebc -at- bellsouth.net) and letting me know which legislator you are willing
contact. |
Advocacy Workshop
|
|
FOGAH sponsored two online advocacy workshops, presented by Joe Tanner and Associates on 27 November and 6 December. Slides
from the presentation are here. They include information about how to locate and communicate with your state senator and representatives. The
slides also include the core message to communicate. Handouts to leave behind can be found here (2MB) and a lower-resolution webversion here. |

Proceeds from ornaments and other products support FOGAH's efforts to

Update from the President
22 October 2012
|
|
As
of yesterday, five of the ten remaining employees will still be losing their jobs on October 31. We continue to work
through our consultant, Joe Tanner and Associates, to decrease that number. He shares our opinion that all ten of the
employees are essential to the Archives' operation.
Unless more surprises are coming our way, it appears that
the Archives will remain in Morrow, even after the Archives' operation is transferred to the University System. Just
in case, the FOGAH Board is providing a rationale to the consultants regarding the benefit to keeping the Archives in its
current location.
We still need to identify volunteers around the state who will personally make contact with their
state legislators after receiving training and talking points from our consulting firm. If you would be willing to volunteer,
please email me at diannebc@bellsouth.net with either your district number or your nine digit zip code and I will add you
to the list. The first training session will be November 8 in St. Simons Island from 3:00 pm to 4:30 so we are especially
interested in volunteers from South Georgia right now.
|
Update from the President18 October 2012
|
|
After reading the October 18, 2012 press release from Governor Deal’s office, the FOGAH Legislative Affairs
Committee had a conference call with our Legislative Affairs consultant. It is unclear how the latest news will impact
on the termination of the seven employees. The consultant will attempt to get more information on that question as soon
as possible. He shares our opinion that all seven employees are essential to the Archives operation. It was also
not clearly stated that the Archives will remain in Morrow, and we are seeking clarification on that as well.
We are
very appreciative of the Governor’s intervention and are especially excited about the move to the University System.
Please write letters to the Governor thanking him for his intervention as soon as possible. Our fight for restoration
of the budget is not over. The $125,000 is obviously not nearly enough. No matter where the Archives resides organizationally,
we need to convince our senators and representatives that the Archives needs at least $5.4 million to get back to the model
Archives it once was and be open five days a week. The first task in the consultant’s work plan is to identify volunteers around the state who will make personal contact with their state legislators after receiving training
and talking points. If you would be willing to volunteer, please email me at diannebc@bellsouth.net and I will add you
to the list. -- Dianne Cannestra |
Deal, Kemp to Keep Georgia’s Archives Open
|
|
Press release received Thursday, 18 October by email at 2:44 PM: Gov. Nathan Deal and Secretary of State Brian
Kemp announced today that the state will restore $125,000 to Kemp’s budget to keep the Georgia State Archives open to
Georgians for the remainder of the budget year.
"Georgia’s Archives are a showcase of our state’s
rich history and a source of great pride," said Deal. "I worked quickly with my budget office and Secretary Kemp
to ensure that Georgians can continue to come to Morrow to study and view the important artifacts kept there. I appreciate
Secretary Kemp’s commitment to work with me to find a solution."
The extra funding provides for Georgia
State Archives to be open to the public through June 30 of next year. On July 1, the Georgia Archives will be transferred
to University System of Georgia, pending approval of the move by the General Assembly. This transfer will include appropriations
required for operation and assets of the Georgia Archives. Additional staff will be provided by USG at that time. Deal and
Kemp intend to find efficiencies by consolidating the Archives under the University System of Georgia, just as the state has
sought to do with the library system.
"From the beginning of this budget process, I have stated that it was
my hope that current access to the Archives could be maintained," Kemp said. "I greatly appreciate Governor Deal’s
leadership and recognize the difficult decisions that had to be made in order to identify this funding. He has proposed a
plan that supports Archives not just this year, but for years to come."
Deal’s budgetary commitment
allows Georgia State Archives to maintain its current access hours.
Statement from
University System Hank Huckabee: "The State Archives contain a
rich history of Georgia and there are extensive cultural and research opportunities available that fit with the University
System's overall mission. We look forward to working with Secretary of State in the transition of the State Archives to the
System and welcome the opportunity to have this tremendous treasure and resource become a part of the University System family."
|
Appointments Announced
|
|
Secretary of State Brian Kemp announced the a plan for appointments at the Archives. Note that appointments are no longer than 2.5 hours and that individuals
wanting to use records "will have to provide staff with specific requests when they make the appointment so they can
have records pulled and waiting on them when they arrive." For full details, including the schedule, see the press release. See the story on WABE's website for a response by Kaye Minchew -- "I question whether the two staff members and the facilities guy can maintain this."
|
Update from the PresidentRequest for Financial Assistance
|
|
After much deliberation
and talking with many different people, on October 11, 2012, the Friends of the Georgia Archives and History (FOGAH) signed
a contract with the legislative affairs consulting firm Joe Tanner & Associates, Inc. The contact is
$3,000 a month for six months. As you know the Archives budget has been severely cut for the past several years. Although
the Coalition to Save the Archives has worked tirelessly to restore some or all of the funding, we have had very limited success.
The latest cut, which resulted in the decision to close the Archives to the public, made us realize that a more organized
approach must be taken. The legislative and budget process is very complex. It requires very specialized
expertise and the ability to contact the appropriate legislators and budget officials. The FOGAH Board
of Directors believes Joe Tanner & Associates, Inc. is the perfect firm to assist us.
All of you will be
asked to assist in the attached workplan. One of the first tasks is to identify individuals who live in each house and senate district in Georgia.
We will be asking those individuals to make contact with each legislator after receiving specialized training and talking
points from Joe Tanner & Associates. Our goal is to work with the Governor and the General Assembly
to put the Georgia Archives on more stable financial footing for years to come. You can also assist by
making a donation to FOGAH that is designated to the “Consultant Fund”. This $3,000 a
month is an expense that was not anticipated and is not covered by our current budget. You can make the
donation by sending a check to FOGAH, 5800 Jonesboro Road, Morrow GA 30260 or on Donate tab on this website (credit card or
PayPal account). Thank you in advance for your assistance in saving our Archives. Dianne Cannestra,
President

 The elaborate ceremonial sword, commissioned by the Georgia Legislature in 1814, honored Col. Daniel Appling, a native
of Georgia and a hero of the War of 1812. The sword was returned to Georgia through the efforts of a coalition of nonprofit
organizations and individuals who raised $100,000 to bring the sword home. Read about the presentation on the

Rally Makes News!
|
|
From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
"More than 100 Georgia Archives supporters rallied Wednesday at the state Capitol, with efforts under way to see
if Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp is violating state law by all but closing the archives to the public.
The rally attracted a diverse group — family historians and genealogists mingling with politicians and tenured
academics. Former Republican Georgia congressman Bob Barr called the decision shortsighted. State Rep. Debbie Buckner,
D-Junction City, called it “a total and complete embarrassment.” Read the full article for more details!

Status of Efforts to Keep the Archives Open
1 October 2012
|
|
After
two weeks of meetings with Secretary Kemp, Governor Nathan Deal, his chief-of-staff Chris Riley, Representative Terry England,
chair of the House Appropriations Committee, and various members of the Georgia Legislature, we hope we are making progress
in assuring that the GA Archives stays open past 31 October. At this point the Archives will close to the public and there
will only be three employees. We pointed out in our visit with Chris Riley, Chief of Staff to Governor Deal on Friday,
28 September, that the Governor's words on 19 September during the Archives Month proclamation photo op, were taken by the
media and the people who were there and heard him to mean he would keep the GA Archives open 1 November and thereafter, with
no closure. Published articles to that effect were left with Mr. Riley. Mr. Riley did not seem to think
that was what the governor meant at all. Others had stated that the Governor's office staff had said he meant "if possible."
We pointed out to Riley that if that were the case and if the Governor had been mis-heard or misquoted, then to set
our people straight, the Governor should clear the air and issue a press release to that effect. By the end of the meeting
we were under the impression that Riley understood that our efforts were going to continue and ratchet up if something was
not done. In the second phase of our campaign to keep the Georgia Archives open, we feel that the
next round of letters and emails should address the following issues or topics and themes, and it might be better if people
were brief and to the point. State Officials have already heard the basic facts. They need to know we are awaiting the
details of how the governor is going to fulfill his promise on 19 September to Keep the Georgia Archives open as we interpreted
that to mean, keep if from closing to the public on 1 November, keep the current staff of ten, and keep the facility in Morrow,
Georgia. For more information, see the status report. |
The Staff: What We Stand To Lose
|
|
A thoughtful blog post on why losing staff diminishes the usefulness of the collections. To describe the closure
as "mothballing" sounds like the status quo will be preserved, the records will be waiting when the Archives is
reopened. In fact, it may take years -- decades -- to have the same level of access. "Their jobs range
from caring for records to working with the public to managing the scanning projects and Web site to receiving, indexing
and storing records from government agencies to writing grant applications for private funding. The seven have a combined
113 years of experience at the Georgia Archives and 144 years overall, including a total of 50 years of management experience.
Three are former presidents of the Society of Georgia Archivists." Read more at Georgia Archives Matters. |
Update from President Cannestra
27 September 2012

Planning for the rally at the Capitol
is almost complete. Please don’t assume that there will be enough people attending and think that
you can skip it. We need a great show of support which means lots and lots of people. We
have got to get the attention of the Governor, the Secretary of State, the press, and the legislators.
The purpose of the
Friends of the Georgia Archives and History is to support the Archives including limited financial support. In
addition to attending the rally October 3, writing everyone you can think of and signing the online petition, you can also help save the Archives by joining FOGAH and by purchasing an ornament. Both of these ways to assist are on the FOGAH web site. If you have questions or ideas, please feel to contact me via diannebc@bellsouth.net.

Closing Georgia Archives
In New York Times
|
|
"Budget Cuts to Archives Put History Out of Reach." The Georgia Archives, which holds both historical curiosities and virtually every important state government
document ever created, is about to become nearly impossible to visit. An amalgam of recession-driven budget cuts and
fast-moving technological changes could result in a black hole of government information whose impact might not be understood
for decades. The records are often used to settle legal disputes. When two Georgia counties were in a fight
over the sales tax revenue from a lucrative Bass Pro shop that straddled their boundaries, they turned to the state archives
to settle things. “The archives are like an insurance policy,” said Richard Pearce-Moses, director of the archival
studies program at Clayton State University, which is near the Georgia Archives Building south of Atlanta. “There is
a good chance we might never need to know where the county line is, but when we do, we really, really need to know.”

Action Tips from
Georgia Genealogical Society
|
|
See the Georgia Genealogical Society's website for a recap of important dates and things to know when contacting Secretary Kemp, your legislators, and others. Your
continued support is essential! The Governor said that the Archives will remain open at the Georgia Archives
Month proclamation last week, but questions remain. The Governor said that he was working on the budget, which may not
be approved until after January; can he do anything to keep them from closing 1 November? When asked if he could protect
the existing staff, he said that he has no authority over the Secretary of State's staffing as it's a separate constitutional
office. Will the seven staff members given layoff notices be protected, or will their collective institutional knowledge
of the collections be lost, making it harder to find materials? Remember, the Archives is not under the Governor.
Secretary Kemp is responsible for the Archives. Voice your opinion to anyone who might have influence, but always copy
Secretary Kemp. Keep advocating for the Archives until you hear a specific commitment to keep the Archives
open after 1 November and to keep the current staff! |
Update by the President, FOGAH 21 September
2012 |
|
I want all our members to know what is happening
with the efforts to stop the closure of the Archives to the public. I will attempt to update you frequently but both
sides of this issue are moving so quickly it is difficult to keep up. There are hundreds of people from many different
organizations who are working many hours each day to safe the Archives from closing. I am not sure that I am even aware
of all of the efforts.
My feeling at this point is that although the Governor’s promise to keep the Archives
open is cause for hope, no details of what that means have been released. So, we are not going to even slow down our
efforts.
Many efforts are aimed at encouraging everyone, within and outside the state, to contact the Governor,
Secretary of State, and legislators via any and all communication methods. From the feedback I have received, many,
many contacts have been made and they are having an impact. They are listening. We are encouraging everyone to
continue to contact these officials.
Many other efforts are aimed at getting publicity out there via TV, radio,
newspapers, and the internet. I think we have been very successful. There is a very active on-line petition.
As of this morning there are almost 15,000 signatures and comments posted. There is also a very active Facebook page
that has some very interesting posts. I have been told that the Governor’s staff and the Secretary of State’s
staff are monitoring both internet sites.
We are in the process of planning two rallies, one in Clayton County
and one at the Capitol. More information will be given to you as soon as the permits have been approved.

you have questions or ideas, please feel to contact me via diannebc@bellsouth.net. Dianne
