Final Week to Apply!  Deadline is April 30th at 5pm.  

 

The Rethinking Resource Sharing Initiative was started to advocate for a
complete rethink of the way libraries conduct resource sharing in the
context of the global internet revolution. In order to showcase resource
sharing innovation, the Rethinking Resource Sharing Initiative has
created an award to encourage libraries and librarians all over the
world to make changes in how they do resource sharing and improve
service to users.

 

Up to three winning submissions will be awarded a cash prize of $1,000
each.  Recipients will be announced at the ASCLA President's
Preconference, "Giving people what they want: information access in
libraries and beyond". The preconference will be held on June 25, 2010
at the American Library Association Annual Conference. 

 

Funding for the 2010 Innovation Awards is provided by OCLC, Relais
International and the Danish Bibliographic Centre.

 

To be considered for the award, please submit a description of the
user-centric service change you have made that has improved resource
sharing in your library, consortium or state.  Full details for
submission can be found at www.rethinkingresourcesharing.org
<http://www.rethinkingresourcesharing.org/> .

 

The deadline for applications/nominations is April 30, 2010.  (post-mark
or date of e-mail).

 

Submissions are sent to the chair of the Rethinking Resource Sharing
Innovation Awards
