From Committees of RUSA: RUSA Achievement Awards 2018

Abstract

RUSA and its Sections are home to many knowledgeable and influential librarians who place library users at the center of their work. Each year members of RUSA’s Achievement Awards honor the most outstanding people, institutions, and projects in the field of reference and user services. This year’s selections were made possible with the hard work of our many superb committee volunteers, the people who took the time to nominate awardees, and the vendors who sponsored the awards.

For each of the awards the winner is listed with a brief summary of why they were chosen. Further information about the winners is available in the RUSA Update press releases at http://www.rusaupdate.org/category/news/awards-news/.

The nomination period for the 2019 Awards opens in October 2018. See the individual award websites at http://www.rusaupdate.org/awards/ for further information.—Editor
