It's not too late to nominate yourself or someone else for the Polestar, Upstart, or Administrator of the Year Awards. Find more information about the awards at www.islma.org. There are FOUR days left to apply!

The Polestar Award is given to honor members of the Association who have made outstanding contributions to school library media programs in Illinois. The recipient will be honored with this award at the ISLMA Fall Conference. More information can be found at: www.islma.org/polestar.htm. The deadline for the Polestar Award is September 1st at 11:59 PM. Submit applications via email to grants-awards at islma.org.

The Upstart Award is given annually to recognize a school library media center’s achievement in planning and implementing an innovative or creative event or service which has made a measurable positive impact on its users.  The award encourages innovation by asking applicants to highlight the way the library used all of its resources (which may include staff, administration, faculty, volunteers, and the community) to make this a successful event or service.  This award is not meant to recognize an overall library program but a specific event or service that adds to the success of the overall library program.  The event may be a one-time, one-day occurrence, or it may take an extended time to complete. A $1000.00 award and a plaque will be given at the ISLMA Fall Conference. More information can be found at: www.islma.org/upstart.htm. The deadline for the Upstart Award is September 1st at 11:59 PM. Submit applications via email to grants-awards at islma.org.

The ISLMA Administrator of the Year Award is given to recognize the meritorious support of a school library program by a building or district level school administrator (a person whose position requires the administrative license such as- but not limited to- a superintendent, principal, or curriculum director) during the previous school calendar year. The recipient will be honored with this award at the ISLMA Fall Conference. More information can be found at: www.islma.org/administrator.htm. The deadline for the ISLMA Administrator of the Year Award is September 1st at 11:59 PM. Submit applications via email to grants-awards at islma.org.
