The association is happy to announce that the ALABI and Baptist History and Heritage Society Woolly Award Committee has selected the Arkansas Baptist History Collection at Ouachita Baptist University as the recipient of this year’s Davis C. Woolley Award for Outstanding Achievement in Assessing and Preserving Baptist History. Of special note were Ouachita’s projects to digitize and provide online access to pre-1920 association annuals and the Arkansas Baptist State Convention annuals, 1848-1900. The committee commented that these projects are rich resources for students of Arkansas Baptist history.
