The Association of College and Research Libraries is offering travel scholarships of\u00a0up to $2,000 each<\/em>\u00a0for librarians presenting on their work demonstrating the impact of academic libraries in the broader landscape of higher education. This program is one of several developed by ACRL’s Value of Academic Libraries (VAL) Committee to support librarians in their efforts to communicate to our partners in higher education including administrators, scholars, and teachers working in all disciplines. These travel scholarships support the community in taking up a recommendation from the\u00a0ACRL report<\/a>\u00a0Academic Library Impact: Improving Practice and Essential Areas to Research<\/em>\u00a0(prepared by OCLC Research and released in September 2017 for\u00a0download<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0purchase<\/a>) that academic librarians effectively communicate their contributions both up to institutional stakeholders and out to other departments.<\/p>\n ACRL invites applications from those seeking to present work on the impact of academic libraries at higher education conferences or disciplinary conferences where they will reach a wide audience (scholarships will\u00a0not<\/em>\u00a0be awarded for travel to library conferences). The presentations may be based on practice-based work or formal research projects.<\/p>\n The deadline to submit your completed Value of Academic Libraries Travel Scholarship Application for the current round of awards is 5 p.m. Central Time on\u00a0Friday, February 15, 2019<\/strong>.
