International booksellers and subscription agents HARRASSOWITZ is once again offering a $1,000 scholarship to attend the Annual Charleston Conference that takes place November 2-5, 2016, in Charleston, SC. The scholarship is to 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 2016 Charleston Conference theme of 'Roll with the Times, or the Times Will Roll Over You', applicants are asked to write an essay of no more than 1,000 words on the topic 'What does "Roll with the Times, or the Times Will Roll Over You?" mean to libraries and vendors?'
Essays should be sent to scholarship@harrassowitz.de by June 30, 2016 and should be accompanied by a one-page resume. HARRASSOWITZ will notify the winner of the scholarship on July 31, 2016.
All applications will be acknowledged and will be reviewed by a panel of librarians. The scholarship must be used for the 2016 conference. Only applications from first-time Charleston attendees will be accepted.
All applicants will be notified of the results.
