Message from ALA


The American Library Association (ALA) Office for Information Technology Policy (OITP) and the Library & Information Technology Association (LITA) are soliciting nominations for best library practices using cutting-edge technology. 
The application process is very simple and attempts to showcase libraries that are serving their communities with novel and innovative services and provide the library community with some successful models for delivering quality library service in new ways.  The key factors is the use of technology to provide a service and something that can be replicated by other libraries.
A committee of practicing librarians will review all nominations to identify those libraries that are truly offering a best practice or most innovative service.  Libraries or library service areas selected will be publicized via the OITP and LITA websites, highlighted through ALA publications, and featured in a program at the ALA Annual Conference in 2012.
