The Groner-Wikler Scholarship is a great opportunity for a librarian who
loves working with children and books in a Jewish context. Does this
describe you or a colleague? Then please nominate/apply!

I was thrilled to receive this award a few years ago and I look forward to
congratulating the next winner!
