HARRASSOWITZ, international booksellers and subscription agents, is offering a $1,000 scholarship to attend the Annual Charleston Conference, scheduled for November 4-7, 2015 in Charleston, SC. The scholarship will be awarded to a librarian or paraprofessional who is currently working in a library and who has not yet attended a Charleston Conference.
Pursuant to the 2015 Charleston Conference theme of 'Where Do We Go From Here?', applicants are asked to write an essay of no more than 1,000 words on the topic: What does "Where Do We Go From Here?" mean to libraries and vendors?
Essays should be sent to scholarship@harrassowitz.de by August 4, 2015 and should be accompanied by a one-page resume. HARRASSOWITZ will notify the winner of the scholarship on August 20, 2015.
All applications will be acknowledged and will be reviewed by a panel of librarians. The scholarship must be used for the 2015 conference. Only applications from first-time Charleston attendees will be accepted.
All applicants will be notified of the results.
