*​ARLIS/NA GEORGE WITTENBORN MEMORIAL BOOK AWARDCALL FOR SUBMISSIONS* The 2014 George Wittenborn Memorial Book Award Committee of the Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA) welcomes submissions of notable art books published in North America during 2014. This prestigious award is presented annually for publications demonstrating excellence in art publishing. Established by ARLIS/NA in 1980, the award honors the memory of George Wittenborn (1905-1974), a premier New York art book dealer and publisher who was a strong supporter of ARLIS/NA in its formative years. Each year, eligible titles are evaluated for excellence in standards of content, documentation, layout, and format. From these titles, one exemplary publication will be chosen to receive the George Wittenborn Memorial Book Award. For a list of past award winners, see: http://www.arlisna.org/about/awards-honors/awards-history/173-george-wittenborn-award-past-winners . Titles eligible for consideration include books (print and electronic), exhibition catalogues, and new periodical titles in any language, published in 2014 and originating from a North American publisher. Publications submitted by foreign publishers with North American offices must have been authored or edited in North America.

Award-winning titles and the individuals associated with them can expect to receive wide recognition in newspapers and journals of the library and publishing professions via press release announcements by ARLIS/NA.
