The ILA Resources and Technical Services Forum has established a scholarship to offset registration for technical services staff members who would not otherwise be able to attend the 2020 ILA Virtual Conference. Two scholarships will be awarded based on financial need and geographic diversity. Priority in selection will be given to first-time ILA Conference attendees. If awarded, the scholarship covers full registration to the 2020 ILA Virtual Conference.
The scholarship recipients will be required to write a brief post-conference essay to include what benefits they received from the conference. The winners will agree that their summaries may be published in the ILA Reporter and may be used for future scholarship promotional materials.
The deadline to apply for the RTSF scholarship is Friday, September 11. To submit an application, go here. If you have any questions about the scholarship, please contact Cyndi Robinson, at robinson@ila.org.
