Call for volunteers: Innovation & Advocacy in Library History Award Committee

  • 1.  Call for volunteers: Innovation & Advocacy in Library History Award Committee

    Posted Oct 26, 2023 10:06 AM

    Dear colleagues:

    We are looking for volunteers to serve on the committee that selects recipients of LHRT's Innovation & Advocacy in Library History Award.  The award is given to "individuals or organizations that have made recent, substantive contributions to LHRT or to the wider library history community. The intention of the award is to recognize efforts that are ineligible for other LHRT prizes; thus, nominations which emphasize publication of articles, books, dissertations, or essays will not be considered."

    The committee will meet in the spring of 2023.

    Interested members should contact LHRT chair Steve Knowlton at steven.knowlton@princeton.edu.
