Hello all!

 

Nominations are now being accepted for the following NMLA Awards: 

Community Achievement Award - this award is given to librarians (those
certified or with a degree) for outstanding library service or achievement
at the local level. Also, may be given as NMLA's recognition of an award
from another source that has enhanced the library, and to the entire library
community; thus, to a local, school, or academic librarian who has received
a community, regional, or national honor. 

Honorary Life Membership Award - NMLA's highest award is given to
individuals for outstanding contributions to the purposes of NMLA, for
constructive accomplishment rather than longevity, not limited to
librarians, may be given to anyone for helping NMLA and/or libraries in New
Mexico. Criteria: Significant contribution to NMLA and its activities
throughout the library career. Scope of activity beyond own work location;
achievements and contributions to NMLA growth are known within the library
community, as well as being recognized by other persons or entities in New
Mexico. 

Legislator of the Year Award - given to a New Mexico state legislator who
has demonstrated leadership in the advancement of libraries throughout the
state. Criteria: Notable legislative contribution to library funding, the
issues of intellectual freedom, and/or access to library services. 

New Mexico Library Amigo Award - given to an individual (friend, volunteer,
trustee, board member, other citizen, or other non-certified personnel)
whose work on behalf of the local library has resulted in significant
progress and/or achievement for that library; or in recognition of work in
the promotion of library service within the state. 

New Mexico Library Leadership Award - given to librarians who have rendered
outstanding service beyond the local community. Criteria: Notable
contribution to the advancement of libraries within the state, known and
recognized in more than one community. Contributions of a nature that bring
recognition and/or enhance the image of libraries in general within New
Mexico. Activities and efforts that have helped other librarians to improve
