Do you have a terrific and innovative program at your library you are proud of?  Is your whole darn library incredible and amazing?  Do you work with someone who you think is inspiring, smart, and effective?  Maybe it is time to consider nominating yourself or someone else for a WLA Award.

These awards mean a lot to the recipients, from what I can tell.  They are a way of recognizing and honoring remarkable people in our profession.  And apparently the nomination process has been streamlined!  Nominations are due September 1.

Please consider it–when people issue invitations like this, they really do mean YOU!
