Applications for the 2012 Northern Ohio Technical Services Librarians (NOTSL) Scholarships are now being accepted.

Applicants must either be currently working in an Ohio library in a professional, paraprofessional, or support position in a technical services area, or be students (residing or studying in Ohio) currently taking coursework in librarianship. The content of the proposed educational activity must relate to technical services, cataloging, serials, acquisitions, preservation, processing or management of technical services.  Typically funded activities can include costs for workshops, conferences, coursework, professional meetings or research, but not training required by an employer.

Scholarships will be applied for the calendar year, from January to December of 2012.  The deadline for submissions is December 8, 2011 and recipients will receive notification in January of 2012.
