Do you have a colleague who has done wonderful work in an academic library? Have they done important research? Have they provided exemplary service to professional organization? The Illinois Association of College and Research Libraries and the Illinois Library Association are looking for nominations for the Illinois Academic Librarian of the Year! Nominations are due by Monday, May 15.
The nomination process is simple. You don’t have to have letters of support or lots of other documentation, although you can attach it if available. More information and the nomination link are available here.
The recipient will receive a certificate, a financial award totaling $500, and have their name added to the plaque at the Illinois State Library. The award is presented by IACRL and CARLI.
Also, consider nominating an academic librarian for one of the ILA’s other awards. Those are listed here.
