In 2013, The Samuel H. Kress Foundation awarded the Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA)  a six year grant to fund an initiative for international travel to promote the exchange of ideas and information among art librarians. This grant will support bringing select arts information professionals together at annual conferences that will enhance connections that can lead to national and international projects and initiatives. The award will provide funding to assist European librarians and art information professionals to attend the annual conferences of the Art Libraries Society of North America and for ARLIS/NA members to attend the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) and other European art library conferences.

 

Now in its second year of making awards, I am pleased to announce the recipients of the 2015 Samuel H. Kress Foundation Awards for International Travel to the Society’s annual conference in Fort Worth, Texas and to the ARLIS/NA session at the College Art Association conference in New York City.

On behalf of the Society, I would like to thank the Samuel H. Kress Foundation and Max Marmor, its President, for their ongoing and very generous support of ARLIS/NA. I would also like to thank the other members of the application review panel who worked quickly and diligently to select the recipients of these awards: Sandra Brooke (Princeton University), Carole Ann Fabian (Columbia University and President, ARLIS/NA), Deborah Kempe (Frick Art Reference Library), and Viveca Pattison Robichaud (University of Notre Dame). I know that members of the Society and participants in our conference will extend a warm welcome to our European counterparts in Fort Worth and New York.

 

Please note: the Review Panel has extended the deadline for applications to attend IFLA and other European art library conferences to February 22, 2015. Please see the ARLIS/NA website for more information
