[CASL-L] Fw: [aaslforum] Fwd: 5 Scholarshiips to ALA Midwinter in Dallas

[IRENE KWIDZINSKI]

FYI 

Who knows how many people will apply and what your chances are for success? If 
you don't try, you can't win!  Don't let this opportunity pass you by.  The 
national book awards are given out on the Monday of the conference, the 23rd. 
 Wouldn't you like to be in the audience as they are announced?!  There are 
plenty of PD opportunities, free advance readers, authors to meet, vendors to 
question and much more.  I encourage you to try.

Irene

EBSCO offers five               scholarships to librarians attending 2012 ALA 
Midwinter               Meeting
CHICAGO- The American Library Association (ALA) and EBSCO are partnering to 
offer five               scholarships for librarians to attend the 2012 ALA 
Midwinter Meeting in Dallas. The meeting takes place Jan.               20 - 24, 
2012, and offers an opportunity for continuing               education, meetings 
and interaction with colleagues.
Each EBSCO scholarship will               be in the amount of $1,500, and one of 
the five               scholarships will be awarded to a first-time conference               
attendee. The scholarship money is to be used for               conference 
registration, travel and expenses.
Deadline for entry is Nov. 1, 2011;               scholarship recipients will be 
notified no later than Dec.               12, 2011.  To apply, candidates must 
complete the application criteria and submit an               essay that 
addresses the following topic: “If you could               change anything about 
your current workplace or job               responsibilities, how would you 
position them to meet               future needs?” Essays and applications will 
be judged by a               jury designated by ALA.
