The Communications Department works hard to identify staff, volunteers, events, projects, partnerships and even technology that may qualify for industry awards. Perhaps you were able to take a look at the March issue of the Library Journal and their Movers and Shakers publicity piece honoring our very own Padma Polepeddi. You can check it out online, as well at http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA6535100.html. Congratulations, Padma!
The Communications Department is charged with taking recommendations from staff or identifying opportunities on our own to apply for such honors. We encourage staff, who are usually quite familiar with industry awards, to share any ideas they might have to honor a person or project associated with ALD. From there, we research the award and determine whether it would be viable to pursue – whether it be timing, award qualifications or other factors. If the award is a go, Communications would be happy to draft up letters of nomination and support, and also gather supplemental information.
Deferred Gratification
Communications staff are currently finalizing details on Colorado Association of Libraries (CAL) professional awards. Although nominations are due mid-June, by early fall we will have an idea who or what will be honored on ALD’s behalf at the CAL conference in November.
