[OLA Awards]

time to get busy!

OLA Awards Nomination Form <https://forms.gle/1e1fNwi9DAS1ejGt9>

Do you know someone who has done an outstanding job in your library or in
OLA work?
Have you admired colleagues who have taken on a successful project
benefiting Oregon libraries?
Want to celebrate the talented, dedicated individuals whose commitment to
excellent library service has made a difference in your community or the
state?

Library workers can be a modest bunch, but professional awards mean a lot
and can make a big impression when seeking new jobs or promotions.
Nominating colleagues for awards is part of mentoring and supporting career
development in our community. It's also a great way to promote the
important and joyful work happening in libraries every day!

Please help us celebrate the good work of Oregon library workers and
supporters and nominate your colleagues for one of the following OLA Awards:

Oregon Librarian of the Year

Library Employee of the Year
OLA Distinguished Service Award
OLA Anti-Racism Recognition Award
Library Supporter of the Year

OLA Honorary Lifetime Membership



More information about the criteria for each award can be found on the OLA
Awards Committee website <https://ola.memberclicks.net/awards-committee>.

Nominations may come from all types of libraries and from all kinds of
librarians, staff and supporters.

Please use the OLA Awards Nomination Form
<https://forms.gle/1e1fNwi9DAS1ejGt9> to submit your nomination.
Nominations should include a description of the nominee’s qualifications
and a list of contributions to OLA (if applicable). The Awards Committee
