CLA TECHNICAL SERVICES INTEREST GROUP AWARD OF ACHIEVEMENT
Call for nominations
The Technical Services Interest Group of the California Library Association
is seeking nominations for the Technical Services Interest Group Award of
Achievement to acknowledge superior achievement by an individual in those
areas of the library profession that encompass technical services.
All members of the library community are invited to take this opportunity
to recognize deserving technical services colleagues who have made significant
contributions in those areas of librarianship that have been especially
challenged by the need for innovation and adaptation in dealing with rapidly
changing technology and work environments.
The Technical Services Interest Group Award is available each year to a
qualified recipient identified by the TSIG Award Committee. The award committee
must consider only those individuals who have been formally nominated, but is
not required to name an award winner each year. The award was established in
1997 and has been presented almost every following year.

the award, the following restrictions apply to potential award recipients:
