NOMINATIONS SOUGHT FOR SCHOOL AWARDS
Wayne State University
School of Library and Information Science
The School of Library and Information Science at Wayne State University requests nominations for two awards.
THE DISTINGUISHED ALUMNA/ALUMNUS AWARD will be given to a graduate who has achieved distinction in the profession based on job performance, service, publication, or other relevant professional activity. The School encourages submission of names of alumni considered to be deserving of this prestigious award. The recipient is expected to attend the awards reception whose date will depend upon changes to the commencement ceremony. Anyone may nominate a candidate, but eligibility for the award is restricted to graduates of the School.
THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AWARD acknowledges Wayne State alumni and other individuals who have made significant and sustained contributions to the Michigan library community during their careers and have supported the School of Library and Information Science. The Professional Service Award recognizes individuals who, for example, have been leaders in state, regional, and/or national professional associations, and/or have held leadership roles in activities related to their positions.
Recipients of both awards are selected by a School committee made up of faculty, staff, and students. The awards are announced at the Annual Recognition Reception. Individuals may nominate themselves or others for either award by submitting the following information:
