Subject: [ARLIS-L] Kress European Travel Award--applications now being
accepted
Importance: High
Dear Colleagues,
The application period for the The Samuel H. Kress Foundation Award for
European Travel is now open.
Applications will be accepted until March 15.
All ARLIS/NA members in good standing who have had a paper accepted at a
European conference relevant to the field of art librarianship or visual
resources curatorship are eligible for the award. International
conferences include, but are not limited to, AKMB, ARLIS/Norden,
ARLIS/UK & Ireland, IFLA, and OKBN*ARLIS/NL.
The award is for $1000, and is intended to defray travel costs (air and
then ground) and then toward their accommodations.
The application can be found at:
http://www.arlisna.org/about/awards/awards_index.html.
The winner will be announced at the ARLIS/NA conference in Boston. If
the award winner has a travel need before the April conference, or
shortly thereafter, we will notify them in advance of the conference.
The ARLIS/NA International Relations Committee (IRC) was founded in 1996
as the conduit between ARLIS/NA, the International Federation of Library
Associations and Institutions (IFLA), and other major international art
organizations. Today, the main charge of the IRC is to implement the
ARLIS/NA vision to pursue partnerships with librarians and institutions
outside of North America in a collaborative effort to support the
Society as the leading organization in the arts information field. The
IRC has been exploring ways to provide support for ARLIS/NA members who
wish to attend and present at conferences. Given the current economic
situation, it has been difficult for ARLIS/NA members to get
institutional funding for these trips. We are grateful for the Kress
Foundation's generosity in helping fulfill the important mission of
developing relationships with our colleagues in Europe.
Sincerely,
