ALA LIBRARY 
EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIPS

Individuals, companies, and professional or­
ganizations are encouraged to contribute to the 
general scholarship fund of the American Li­
brary Association’s Scholarship Program. The 
number and frequency of the awards, known 
as the ALA Scholarships, will be determined by 
the total amount of funds contributed by do­
nors. Each scholarship will be $2,500, and as 
many as possible will be awarded annually.

The program, approved by the ALA Council 
at the 1969 Midwinter meeting in Washington, 
D.C., is designed to help worthy students to 
begin and/or further their library education at 
the graduate level. Scholarships will be 
awarded without regard to race, creed, color 
or national origin. The recipient must enter a 
formal program of graduate study leading to a 
degree or advanced certificate at an ALA ac­
credited school.

A jury appointed by the chairman of the 
ALA Awards Committee in consultation with 
the incoming president of the Library Educa­
tion Division will administer the scholarships. 
The jury will be composed of five members, 
three of whom are members of LED and two 
of whom are members of the ALA Awards 
Committee. The staff liaison to the jury will be 
LED executive secretary. When funds permit, 
the recipients of the scholarships will be an­
nounced at the inaugural banquet during the 
ALA annual conferences.

Contributions to the general scholarship fund 
should be made payable to the American Li­
brary Association, 50 East Huron Street, Chi­
cago, Illinois 60611, and sent to the attention 
of Mr. David H. Clift, Executive Director. ■ ■
