The Clift scholarship is given to a U.S. or Canadian citizen to begin a master's in library science degree. The Scholarship Program is designed to encourage the development of leadership in American librarianship. The deadline is January 14, 1994. Winners will be announced during the 1994 ALA Annual Conference, June 23-30, in Miami Beach. The annual directory includes information on national awards, scholarships, fellowships, grants and assistantships from state library agencies and associations, educational institutions and local libraries.
Most listings are for programs leading to the master's degree in library science.
Some apply to undergraduate, sixth-year certificate, doctoral and continuing education programs. Academia, libraries, government agencies, as well as media and telecommunication companies are involved in the current development. The proposal should include title, presenter, purpose of workshop, references, and plan. Workshops should substantially involve the audience and proposals in which some group product or action plan is created are preferred. As the proposals may be collected into a book, workshop proposals should be clear and informative to people who don't participate in the workshop.
