ACRL announces deadline correction for ACRL/RBMS Katharine Kyes Leab and Daniel J. Leab American Book Prices Current Exhibition Catalogue Awards

The deadline for 2004 Katharine Kyes Leab and Daniel J. Leab American Book Prices Current Exhibition Catalogue Awards was incorrectly listed as December 5, 2003. The actual deadline was September 30, 2003. Any submissions made from now until December 5, 2003, due to this error, will be accepted for the 2005 award season.

The awards are funded by an endowment established by Katharine Kyes Leab and Daniel J. Leab, editors of American Book Prices Current, are given for excellence in the publication of catalogs and brochures that accompany exhibitions of library and archival materials, as well as for electronic exhibitions of such materials. More details on the award, including submission procedures, can be found on the ACRL Web site,
