The Oklahoma Collections Assessment Plans (OCAP) Program is available for organizations with annual budgets of $50,000 or less.

This opportunity provides assistance in conducting an organizational and collections self-assessment, the services of a preservation consultant to help staff develop a written plan, and registration fee waivers for workshops sponsored by OHRAB and its partners. Download additional information and the application form.
