STARS-Atlas Systems Mentoring Award
The STARS-Atlas Systems Mentoring Award will
be made annually to one library practitioner who is new to the field of
interlibrary loan/document delivery or electronic reserves, and who has daily,
hands-on involvement in the areas of borrowing, lending, document delivery,
electronic reserves, material delivery, or resource sharing. This award is
intended for persons from all types of libraries interested in a
mentoring opportunity at ALA, and who have been in the profession for less than
two years, or an individual who has recently accepted an interlibrary loan,
resource sharing or electronic reserves position and has little or no
experience in that area. M.L.S. or ALA membership is not required for this
award. Candidates are welcome to
nominate themselves. Your application
may be as short or as long as you need; please include a description of how you
might use your time at ALA.
Preference will be given to individuals who
evidence greatest need of this stipend for the purposes of professional
development, networking, initial or continuing education, and service to their
local community. The STARS Education and Training Committee will assign a
mentor to the recipient for the conference to help them navigate through the
conference experience.
The Mentoring Award is a cash award of $1,000 for travel expenses to attend
the ALA annual conference. Application instructions in Word format can be
found below. Applications for the 2008 Award will be reviewed beginning
December 1, 2007.
