Innovative and creative projects and programs by societies, libraries, archives, museums, and other institutions are featured annually in the SLAM! Idea Showcase, part of the NGS Family History Conference. Started in 2021, the SLAM! Idea Showcase highlights great work and sparks inspiration for librarians, society leaders, and others who serve genealogists and family historians.

By sharing their programs, projects, and resources, the participants help promote collaboration, networking, and collegiality among information providers. All SLAM! Idea Showcase videos are available on the NGS YouTube Channel for everyone to learn from. A committee reviews all submissions each year and selects the winning video(s) for a cash prize.
