The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) is awarding 26 scholarships for individuals to attend the 2016 National Diversity in Libraries Conference (NDLC '16), August 10–13, in Los Angeles, California. Each scholarship awardee will receive $1,000 for travel to and participation in the conference. These awards are intended to encourage participation and engagement of library staff and faculty who might not have the financial resources to attend the conference.
NDLC '16 is cosponsored by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Library and the Association of Research Libraries. The conference aims to articulate the value of and develop strategies for diversity and inclusion in the library, archive, and museum (LAM) fields in order to improve organizational excellence and community engagement.
ARL, the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL), Clemson University Libraries, and numerous ARL member libraries contributed to this scholarship fund.
