The Illinois Library Association is now accepting nominations for the 2018 Awards season! Everything you need to know in order to nominate one of your heroes, idols, mentors, colleagues, or best friend is at your fingertips on the ILA website-think about who you’d like to see honored by one of these awards for outstanding librarians, library advocates, and many more categories.
Awards are due this year by Tuesday, May 15. Nominating someone for an ILA Award is easy to do. Go here to learn about all of the awards, then submit the nomination form and all supporting documentation via the ILA Web site.
This is a formal way to recognize a colleague who is doing amazing things at your library or for the library community! Please contact Kara Kohn, at kkohn@plainfieldpubliclibrary.org, if you have any questions or need assistance in nominating someone.
Also, watch for additional announcements on the Illinois Academic Librarian of the Year Award.
