With apologies for cross-posting

Please note that the 15th February deadline is fast approaching for nominations for 
the Society for the History of Technology Dibner Award for 2005.

The Dibner Award was established by SHOT in 1985 to recognize excellence in museums 
and museum exhibits that interpret the history of technology, industry, and engineering 
to the general public. Winning exhibits, in addition to being well designed and 
produced, should raise pertinent historical issues. Artifacts and images should 
be used in a manner that interests, teaches, and stimulates both the general public 
and historians. The winners will be announced at the Society's Annual Meeting in 
Minneapolis, Nov. 3-6, 2005. The Award consists of a plaque and up to $1000 to 
cover expenses for a member of the design team to accept the award at the SHOT 
awards banquet. The Society especially encourages nominations from local and regional 
historical societies. "Virtual" exhibits are not eligible for the award.

Further information and nomination forms are available at the SHOT webpage

Nominations should be sent to the 2005 Chair of the Dibner Award:

Dr. Graeme Gooday
