2018 Bunce Travel Award 

On behalf of the ARLIS/NA Midstates Chapter, the Travel Awards Committee is pleased to offer the William C. Bunce Travel Award of $600 for travel to the ARLIS/NA Annual Conference in New York City, February 25-March 1, 2018. 

This award is given in honor of William C. Bunce, who served as the Director of the Kohler Art Library at the University of Wisconsin-Madison from 1966 to 1999. The William C. Bunce ARLIS/NA-Midstates Travel Award is intended to support a Midstates chapter member’s professional development by providing funding to attend the ARLIS/NA annual conference. Only ARLIS/NA-Midstates Chapter members are eligible. Information about becoming a member of ARLIS/NA and the regional chapter is available at the ARLIS/NA website and the ARLIS/NA-Midstates Chapter website. 

This Travel Award will be granted based on one or more of the following criteria: financial need; level of chapter participation; first-time attendance; and contribution to the conference. 

To apply for this award please submit a letter of application addressing relevant award criteria and how you will benefit from attending the ARLIS/NA Annual Conference in New York. You must also indicate the level of funding you expect to receive from your institution and include a current resume or CV. Please send applications via email to Amy Trendler ([log in to unmask]).
