Nominate Your Librarian

"Librarians in our nation’s 123,000 libraries make a difference in the lives of millions of Americans every day. Now is your chance to tell us why we should shine the spotlight on a librarian at your public, school, college, community college or university library. Nominate your librarian for the Carnegie Corporation of New York/New York Times I Love My Librarian Award! Up to ten librarians will be honored. Each will receive $5,000 and be recognized at an awards ceremony hosted by The New York Times at TheTimesCenter in December 2009. Nominate a librarian in one of three categories: public librarians; school library media specialists; or college, community college, or university librarians. Nominations close Oct. 9, 2009. All winners will be announced in early November."
