*Do you know a rising star in the library and information world? *Would
you like to see them recognized for their promising achievements? Look no
further! ATG Media is thrilled to announce the second annual round of
nominations for Up and Comers.
Who exactly is an “Up and Comer”, you ask? They are librarians, library
staff, vendors, publishers, MLIS students, instructors, consultants, and
researchers who are new to their field or are in the early years of the
profession. An Up and Comer can be someone you work with, someone you’ve
presented with or shaken hands with at a conference, or someone whose
accomplishments and potential you admire. Up and Comers are passionate
about the future of libraries. They innovate, inspire, collaborate, and
take risks. They are future library leaders and change makers. And they
all have one thing in common: they deserve to be celebrated.
The 2018 Up and Comers will be recognized in the December/January issue of
Against the Grain, and 15 of these brilliant rising stars will be profiled
in the same issue, and all will be recognized at the First Time Attendees
reception at the Charleston Conference. In addition, they will be featured
in a series of scheduled podcast interviews that will be posted on the
ATGthePodcast.com website.
Nominations for this round of Up and Comers is open through September
28th.
Don’t wait! Spread the good news, tell your friends and colleagues, and
nominate your favorite Up and Comer here
