> The Library Acquisitions, Collections and Technical Services (LCATS)
> Research Award provides an biannual prize of $2,000 for research in the
> broad areas of collection management and technical services. The award
> will be given for one proposal and administered in two parts: $1000 when
> the proposal is selected to fund the research effort and $1000 when the
> completed manuscript is submitted to Library Acquisitions, Collections and
> Technical Services. The award will be granted to the individual, not the
> institution, and may be used to cover expenses incurred in conducting the
> research outlined in the winning proposal, including travel, postage,
> staff
> support, supplies, and other items.
>
> The winning proposal will identify a critical issue in collection
> management or technical services and outline a rigorous approach to
> testing
> or solving the issue raised. Proposals will be judged on their
> significance, clarity and originality. The proposal should be a brief,
> concise description of the project (no more than 500 words). A budget
> proposal and a one page vita of the author must be attached. Awards will
> not be limited to experienced researchers; however, researchers should
> present their proposal clearly addressing the following issues:
>
> 1. What are the aims and objectives of the research proposal?
> 2. What methodology and data analysis procedures will be
> employed?
> 3. What related research has been undertaken and/or published?
>
> Please include specific citations.
> 4. Is the research replication of a previous study?
>
> The deadline for submitting proposals is September 15, 2000. Proposals
> will be reviewed by a panel consisting of the editor-in-chief, the
> associate/assistant editors, and three members of the editorial board.
> The
> winning proposal will be announced at the American Library Association
> Midwinter Conference in 2001 and in an issue of LCATS for that year.
> Research for the winning proposal must be completed within one year of the
> date when the award is announced. Library Acquisitions, Collections and
> Technical Services reserves the right of first refusal of the completed
> manuscript.
>
