​Beta Phi Mu Conference Support Grant – 2016 Winner


​FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Beta Phi Mu Conference Support Award given to “The Innovative Library Classroom.”

January 19, 2016

“The Innovative Library Classroom” is the recipient of the 2016 Beta Phi Mu Conference Support Award. This annual award provides a $500 grant to a new and/or small conference, symposium, forum, or similar event which is open to attendance by LIS practitioners and is aligned with Beta Phi Mu’s core values of scholarship, leadership, and service. “The Innovative Library Classroom,” to be held on May 12, 2016, in Radford, VA, will explore teaching and learning in the library environment.

Beta Phi Mu is the International Library and Information Science Honor Society. Since its founding in 1948, thousands of outstanding LIS students have been initiated into the society on the strength of their academic record and the recommendation of their school’s faculty. Beta Phi Mu promotes excellence in the LIS professions through a robust program of scholarships, awards, and publications.

The Conference Support Award selection committee chose “The Innovative Library Classroom” because of its collaborative, multi-institutional approach; relevant and timely focus; appeal across types of libraries; and demonstrated congruity with the society’s core values.  Applications for next year’s award will be accepted starting in September 2016.
