[Libs-Or] ACRL Oregon 2012 Award for Excellence Winners Announced

[Robin Paynter]

The Oregon Chapter of the Association of College and Research Libraries is
happy to announce its 2012 Awards for Excellence, recognizing two
outstanding library projects from Oregon academic librarians:

*Terry Reese and the Libraries of Oregon project team.*

The Libraries of Oregon project represents a collaborative effort by the
State Library and the Oregon State University Libraries & Press.  The
project team has created a shared resources that will effectively provide
access to statewide research collections and remove barriers to content for
all Oregonians, significantly improving our ability to serve under- and
unserved populations in Oregon.

*Isaac Gilman and the project team behind the Journal for Librarianship and
Scholarly Communication (JLSC)*

Launched in May, this quarterly, open-access, peer-reviewed journal has
already generated nationwide interest.  In addition to providing an outlet
for librarians and researchers interested in examining new paradigms for
scholarly communication, the journal will serve as a testbed where new
forms of peer review and new impact metrics can be modeled and investigated.

What a fantastic year for academic libraries in Oregon – and for all of us
across the profession who will benefit from these amazing projects!

Congratulations!

ACRL Oregon Board
