I’m excited to share some exciting new improvements to PA-SHARE. If you’re keeping track, this is the fifth major round of improvements and bug fixes to PA-SHARE and Surveyor as part of our PA-SHARE 2.0 investment.

Celebrating Preservation Success Stories with Community Initiative Awards
Earlier this week my Alexa reminded me that there are 100 days until the end of the year. After a moment of shock, my brain started its mental cataloguing of all the things that I have to do before December 31. Deadlines, appointments, holidays, the list goes on…
One reminder I’d like to put on your to-do list before the year is out is to tell us about a preservation success story in your community. Each year PA SHPO selects a few of these stories for a Community Initiative Award.
The practice of historic preservation is like a family heirloom, passed down from one generation to the next so that when you get tasked with the role of heirloom keeper, it reminds us to not forget about the past and look to how it has shaped the present.
It’s been a minute since we last posted about some PA-SHARE improvements. PA-SHARE’s developers and PA SHPO staff have been hard at work continuing with the 2.0 enhancements we announced last year.
Most of the recent changes are in response to user feedback and suggestions.
Are you interested in joining a pro-active and dedicated team of preservationists, historians, and archaeologists? In this Historic Preservation Specialist role, you will specialize in our online data management and cultural resources GIS tool, the Pennsylvania’s State Historic and Archaeological Resource Exchange (PA-SHARE). If you want to preserve our history with the Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission (PHMC), this is the job for you!
Don’t miss out on this opportunity! The deadline to apply has been extended to July 5, 2024. PA SHPO can now work from home except for days when you’ll be out visiting Pennsylvania’s historic places and one day a month in the office with your colleagues in Harrisburg.
Spring is around the corner, and long-requested updates to Surveyor Manager functionality are the among the first new blooms of the season!
March is Women’s History Month and an opportunity to highlight and celebrate the vital role of women in Pennsylvania and American history.
The Pennsylvania Baseline Survey Team is thrilled to share the final year of findings from the Pennsylvania Baseline Survey. From June 2022 to March 2024, Year 3 of the Baseline Survey took place in 20 counties. To date, over 6,854 new resources have been recorded in 503 municipalities thanks to the efforts of our Baseline Survey Teams!
A Trip Through the PASS: The 2023 Annual PASS Report
Now that 2023 is officially in the PASS, let’s look back on another successful year of archaeological site recording and survey efforts throughout Pennsylvania.
As we announced last October, PA SHPO has been working on upgrades and improvements to PA-SHARE.
We have made some notable changes since our last update that will improve the external user experience. They are primarily focused on enhanced functionality and clearer presentation of information.
