LITA/Endeavor Student Writing Award Deadline Extended
The LITA/Endeavor Student Writing Award is given for the best unpublished manuscript on a topic in the area of libraries and information technology written by a student or students enrolled in an ALA-accredited library and information studies graduate program.
The purpose of this award is to recognize superior student writing and to enhance the professional development of students through publication of the winning article in LITA's refereed journal, Information Technology and Libraries (ITAL).
The winner will receive $1,000 and a certificate. In the case of joint authorship, the award will be split among the authors and each will receive a certificate. The winning article will be published in a future issue of ITAL.
Deadline for the award this year is April 15th. The winner will be notified by June 1.
The article can be written on any aspect of libraries and information technology, including digital libraries, metadata, authorization and authentication, electronic journals and electronic publishing, telecommunications, distributed systems and networks, computer security and intellectual property rights, technical standards, geographic information systems, software engineering, universal access to technology, futuristic forecasting, library consortia, vendor relations, and technology and the arts.
Manuscripts will be selected based on the following criteria: relevance to libraries and information technology, timeliness, originality of ideas, persuasiveness of arguments, quality of writing, clarity of presentation, and contribution to the continuing education of the LITA membership. Manuscripts may be applicable to a variety of library settings, including public, academic, special libraries, school media centers, and library and information studies programs.
Unselected manuscripts will be returned to the author(s).
To be eligible, applicants for the award must follow the detailed Guidelines and fill out an application form.
Both are available at www.lita.org. At the time the article is submitted, the applicant(s) must be currently
enrolled in an ALA-accredited program of library and information studies at the Masters or Ph.D. level.
The LITA/Endeavor Student Writing Awards Committee is not required to select a recipient if, in the opinion of the Committee, no nomination merits the award in a given year.
Send applications to the current chair of the LITA/Endeavor Student Writing Awards Committee.
The award will be presented at the LITA President's Program at the ALA Annual Conference if the winner(s) is present.
