Nominate your librarian for the third year of the Carnegie Corporation of New York/New York Times I Love My Librarian Award! Nominations for 2010 stay open through September 20.
There are nearly 123,000 libraries nationwide, and librarians touch the lives of the people they serve every day. The award encourages library users like you to recognize the accomplishments of exceptional public, school, college, community college, or university librarians. We want to hear how you think your librarian is improving the lives of the people in your school, campus or community.
Up to ten winners will be selected this year and receive a $5,000 cash award, a plaque and $500 travel stipend to attend an awards reception in New York hosted by The New York Times. In addition, a plaque will be given to each award winner’s library. The award is administered by the American Library Association with support from Carnegie Corporation of New York and The New York Times. Join us on Facebook for updates on the award throughout the nomination process. You can read about the 2009 winners here. Questions? Contact Megan Humphrey: mhumphrey@ala.org
