ACRL-Oregon seeks to foster collaboration between academic librarians and
school librarians. The role of school librarians is vitally important and
is in many ways interrelated with the work of academic librarians and the
students we all serve.  This year ACRL-OR has up to $1000.00 of scholarship
funds still available to support projects.

*How can the scholarship be used?*
This funding opportunity covers any collaboration between at least one
school librarian and at least one academic librarian that the applicant(s)
can make a good case for. This includes, but is not limited to:

   - Sponsorship to attend, exhibit, or present at a relevant conference
   (OASL, regional conferences, or others)
   - Creation of programming, such as a conference, workshop, unconference,
   or pre-conference
   - Work on a collaborative research project
   -  Something else we haven’t thought of!

*Examples of past awards include:*

   - Paige Battle and Lori Wamsley

   in a school library

Academic and school librarians outside of Oregon (unless part of a team of

   - Have at least one applicant who is a member of ACRL-Oregon and one who
   is a member of OASL

   librarians
   - Have the potential to favorably influence information literacy
