ALCTS 2010 Outstanding Collaboration
Citation Award Nominations
********A CALL FOR NOMINATIONS********
This award recognizes and encourages
collaborative problem-solving efforts in the areas of acquisition, access,
management, preservation or archiving of library materials. It recognizes
actions, services or products that improve and benefit the providing and
managing of library collections. The citation may be presented to two or more
individuals or groups who have participated jointly in an appropriate
achievement. Accomplishments that expose problems may be as valuable as
successes. The citation will be presented in a year when an achievement of
merit has occurred. Recognized forms of collaboration must be between library
personnel and other individuals or such groups as publishers, vendors,
cultural organizations, government agencies, philanthropic organizations and
the like. Results of a collaborative effort must demonstrate advancement in
collection management or technical services working environments.
The 2007 Outstanding Collaboration Citation was
awarded to CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) and the 2008 Citation Award recognized
Adam Chandler and Oliver Pesch for their work on the SUSHI protocol.
