[Libs-Or] Apply now for the ACRL-OR Professional Development Scholarship

[ACRLOR Communication]

ACRL-Oregon is delighted to announce a new round of Professional
Development Scholarship awards.   Thanks to a matching-fund grant from the
State Library of Oregon, ACRL-Oregon is able to offer up to $675  for each
award for the 2019-2020 fiscal year. Applications are accepted at three
points throughout the year (see below for specific deadlines); *we are
currently soliciting applications for the November 29th deadline.* Applications
will be reviewed within two weeks after the application deadline.

*How can the scholarship be used?  *

The ACRL-Oregon Professional Development Scholarship may be used toward
conferences, workshops, courses, seminars, or other learning opportunities
(including e-learning opportunities) appropriate to the applicant. The
funding priority is registration and transportation costs incurred by the
applicant.

For examples of how past recipients have used their awards, see these posts
