For several years, the National Barn Alliance has struggled with how to make it easier for barns to be placed on the National Register of Historic Places. A special NBA sub-committee was formed in 1999 to study this issue. Toward that end the National Barn Alliance is directing interested parties to provide electronic postings of appropriate National Register Nominations. Four sample online National Register Nomination forms have been available for some time from the Ohio Historical Society. Recently, the National Register Nomination Form for the Thomas Stone Barn was added by the Wisconsin Historical Society.
