IGI Global's Academic Librarian Sponsorship Program
As a leading publisher of scholarly publications and databases, IGI Global seeks to support the advancement of resources and services in academic libraries. As part of this initiative, IGI is proud to continue their Academic Librarian Sponsorship Program, which sponsors librarians' attendance of the industry's most important events. In an ongoing effort to help librarians grow professionally and increase their understanding of the changing state of knowledge resources, IGI Global will award one librarian with a $500 stipend for attendance at ACRL 2013
All interested librarians must submit their IGI Award Application by Friday, March 15, 2013.
