The Georgia Library Association awards two scholarships annually to
students completing a master's degree in library science. The Hubbard
Scholarship, a $3,000 award, is intended to recruit excellent candidates
for librarianship and defray some of the costs of their education. The
Beard Scholarship, in the amount of $1,000, is for applicants who show
strong potential for leadership in the library profession. Recipients of
both awards must agree to work for at least one year in Georgia following
graduation but need not be residents of Georgia to apply.
The deadline to apply for the 2012 scholarships is May 21.
