This is the third in a series of messages from current committee chairs that will describe each committee's work and encourage members to apply to participate. Please look for these messages throughout October to learn more about exciting ways to contribute to ARLIS/NA.

Dear ARLIS/NA members,

Please consider applying to join one of the Awards sub-committees!

What we do:

The Awards Committee consists of six subcommittees that award 15+ ARLIS/NA awards. There are awards for ARLIS/NA members' research, and awards for art library students; travel awards for conference attendance and other travel; national and international awards for the best art books published each year; and an award for the Society's highest member honor, the Distinguished Service Award. Every time the ARLIS/NA awards are presented at the annual conference convocation, I am newly humbled and impressed by the work art information professionals do, and so happy that the Society recognizes and marks these accomplishments.

What we're looking for:

We would love to have ARLIS/NA members of all levels of experience who work in all types of libraries in all geographical regions of North America join our group. Some sub-committees, such as the book awards, have membership restrictions (the Dwyer Award sub-committee, for example, is composed of members in Canada, and the Wittenborn sub-committee is traditionally composed of members of the chapter that last hosted the annual conference), but others are open to all. If you are a recent graduate or current student who has won a student award in the past, serving on the Student Advancement Award sub-committee is a great way to continue involvement with the Society.

For more information, please check out the following:
And, please do not hesitate to reach out to me or any of the Awards sub-committee chairs if you have questions:
  • Maria Oldal, chair of the Distinguished Service Award sub-committee
  • Suzanne Rackover, chair of the Dwyer book award sub-committee
  • Jon Evans, chair of the Wittenborn book award sub-committee
  • Andi Back, chair of the Research Awards sub-committee
  • Courtenay McLeland, chair of the Student Advancement Awards sub-committee
  • Katie Keller, chair of the Travel Awards sub-committee
To apply for a future Awards sub-committee, please use the ARLIS/NA 2020-2021 volunteer form: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2020-2021volunteers 
For more information about the process, please see Vice President/President-Elect Amy Trender's message to ARLIS-L from October 1st.

Best--
Karyn Hinkle
Awards Committee Chair
