Idaho State Historical Records Advisory Board

The Idaho State Historical Records Advisory Board (Idaho SHRAB) provides grants to support projects that preserve and increase online access to Idaho’s historical records, develop and promote archival and records management best practices, and connect people to primary sources in their communities and online.

These grants are funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC), allowing Idaho SHRAB to regrant funds to eligible Idaho organizations, including 501(c)(3) nonprofits, state agencies,  and tribal, city, and county governments.

In 2025, Idaho SHRAB awarded a total of $30,000 to nine organizations throughout the state.
