TLA Brooks McNamara Performing Arts Librarian Scholarship

[Francesca Marini]

Theatre Library Association is pleased to sponsor the Brooks McNamara
Performing Arts Librarian Scholarship in memory of the achievements of
this beloved theatre historian, scholar, educator, and mentor.

The Brooks McNamara Performing Arts Librarian Scholarship acknowledges
outstanding professional accomplishments of promising students currently
enrolled in MLIS or archival training programs specializing in performing
arts librarianship.

This year, the theme is: Theatre Library Association: The Next Seventy-five
Years. The theme is open, but some possible topics may include: How do
we continue to serve users in diverse and innovative ways? How can we
support artists in their creative endeavors? How can we mentor a new
generation of performing arts librarians and archivists?

Interested students are encouraged to apply by submitting the attached
application form and supporting materials by June 28, 2013 to
fmarini at stratfordfestival.ca or to the address listed on the form. The
form is also available from the TLA website
(http://www.tla-online.org/awards/scholarship.html). Applications will be
screened by the Scholarship Committee.

The winner will receive a $500 check and a one-year complimentary TLA
membership. The essay will be published in BROADSIDE, TLA's online
newsletter. The Scholarship winner will be publicly announced in October
2013.
