VLA Awards: An Overview

Abstract

In 2010, VLA President John Moorman gave the Awards and Recognition Committee the following charge: "To examine all awards given by the Virginia Library Association (VLA) and make recommendations on their individual continuance to the VLA Executive Committee by their September 9, 2010, meeting." As the committee began its review, it was apparent that many members of VLA were not aware of the various awards sponsored by the association and its units. The committee hopes that this article will increase awareness of the VLA Awards and encourage members to submit nominations.
