澳门六合彩开奖app
Deadline: January 31 each year
This award is currently paused.
The purpose of this award is to bring attention to research relevant to the development of information technologies, especially work which shows promise of having a positive and substantive impact on any aspect of the publication, storage, retrieval and dissemination of information, or the processes by which information and data is manipulated and managed. The intent is to recognize a body of work probably spanning years, if not the majority of a career.
The winner receives $2,000 cash and an expense paid trip to the Annual Conference (airfare and two nights lodging).
Nominations are accepted from any member of the 澳门六合彩开奖app, although the person nominated does not need to be an member. Self-nominations are also accepted. Nominating letters should briefly address how the research is relevant to libraries; is creative in its design or methodology; builds on existing research or enhances potential for future exploration; and/or solves an important current problem in the provision of information resources. In addition, a complete curriculum vita and a copy of several seminal publications by the nominee must be included. Nominees may be asked to submit additional information to the Frederick G. Kilgour Award Committee. Preference will be given to completed research over works in progress.
Currently-serving officers and elected officials of Core, members of the current Kilgour Award Committee, previous winners of the Award, and OCLC employees and their immediate family members are ineligible.
