LLAMA/PRMS "Best of Show Awards"
The annual Best of Show Awards recognize the very best public relations materials produced by libraries in the past year. This year’s competition will award and recognize original materials produced during the 2011 calendar year.
Entries in all categories are judged on content, originality, design format and effectiveness, by a team of experts in public relations and marketing who select the winners in each category.
Winning entries will be on display during the PR Xchange program during the ALA Annual Conference in Anaheim, CA. Awards will be presented to the winners on that day. Award winners need not be present to win, but are encouraged to attend.
The Best of Show Awards are sponsored by the Library Leadership Administration and Management Association's Public Relations and Marketing Section and are overseen by the PR XChange Committee (formerly known as Swap and Shop).
