Celebrating information professionals in Wales

There's still time to make your nomination for the Welsh Librarian of the Year 2013 Award!

The nominations deadline has now been extended until 23:59 on Tuesday 2 April 2013.

 

We've had a flurry of last-minute - but excellent - nominations for the Welsh Librarian of the Year Award. Thank you to the CILIP members who have taken the time to recognise and celebrate the achievements, impacts and innovation of their colleagues.

In order to capitalise on this final spurt of activity we have decided to extend the deadline until Tuesday 2 April 2013. So it's not too late to make your nominations! Who will you nominate?

The overall winner will be announced at the Annual Conference on Thursday 16 May, and will receive a prize of £500. SirsiDynix, the library technology specialists, are kindly sponsoring the Award. Further information about the award, including links to the nomination form, are available here. The nomination procedure is very straight-forward. Your nomination should be supported by a statement of upto 400 words outlining:

1. your nominee’s recent professional achievements and impacts.
2. how has their work made a significant and positive impact on their user communities, or to the profession more widely?
3. how has your nominee demonstrated outstanding service provision, innovation, excellence or contributed to the development of best practice? 

You may also choose to add some further supporting evidence, not exceeding 5 sides of A4 or 5MB file size. We look forward to receiving your nomination!
