It’s that time of year again when we look to the members of the Division to nominate potential recipients of the Karen J. Switt Award and the Distinguished Member Award.

The Karen J. Switt Award recognizes a member’s significant contribution to, and leadership in, information management during the past five years.

The Distinguished. Member Award is for service to the Division and is intended for someone nearing retirement for their contribution to the Division over a long period of time.

For further details about the awards, please refer to our division’s wiki at http://wiki.sla.org/display/SLALMD/Awards.

To nominate someone for either award, please send an email to either of the Awards Committee co-chairs, Carol Ginsburg  (Carol.Ginsburg@bstamerica.com) or Stephen Kochoff (stak.kochoff@gmail.com)  by March 25, 2011.

Past awardees include:

2010 – Libby Trudell
2009 – Deb Hunt
2008 – Cindy Hill
. . . and more

Many thanks for your support in recognizing our division stars.
