    The RUSA Award for Excellence in Reference and Adult Library Services sponsored by Data Axle Reference Solutions is a citation and $1,500* monetary award presented to a library or library system for developing an imaginative and unique resource to meet patrons' reference needs. The resource can be a bibliography, a guide to the literature of a specific subject, a directory, a database, or any other project that has helped the library meet adults' reference needs. Tools, guides or databases that have been developed for reader's advisory or adult service questions and needs are also eligible for the award.  You can nominate your library or another library. The nomination deadline is February 17.

    For more information including eligibility and evaluation criteria, please visit the award's webpage. If you have any questions about the award, please contact the chair of the award committee, Jason Coleman, coleman@ksu.edu.
