Now open is the Media Administrator of the Year award, which seeks to recognize an outstanding administrator for his/her support of library programs. This award has been completely revamped in order to make the process easier, so be sure to check it out.

Don't forget about the Better Together grant! Do you have an innovative project that fosters the integration of media/information skills into the K-12 curriculum via collaboration? The focus of this grant is fostering partnerships between librarians and other educators, such as classroom teachers, counselors, social workers, and other specialists. Up to 3 one-year grants totaling $1,000 each will be awarded.

Better Together grant winners will be expected to present at the 2027 NCSLMA Conference.

Visit https://ncslma.org/Awardsgrantsscholarships to learn more and apply! Please be sure to read the requirements in full to ensure eligibility.

Applications for both will close at 11:59pm on September 15 and winners will be notified October 1. If you have any questions, please reach out! Have a great school year!
