Subject: Fritz Schwartz Serials Education Scholarship

  The NASIG Awards and Recognition Committee would like to distribute
additional information regarding the Fritz Schwartz Serials Education
Scholarship. The $2,500 scholarship is awarded annually by the Serials
Industry Systems Advisory Committee and the North American Serials Interest
Group to a student who shows excellence in scholarship and potential for
accomplishment in a serials career.  The scholarship recipient will receive
a Student Grant Award to attend the NASIG conference for the year the
scholarship is granted and one year memberships in NASIG and SISAC.

  This joint NASIG/SISAC scholarship is in memory of Frederick E. "Fritz"
Schwartz who was a tireless proponent of standard electronic data
interchange (EDI) in the serials publishing industry.

  NASIG and SISAC are pleased that Michael A. Brown is the first recipient of
the Fritz Schwartz Serials Education Scholarship.  Michael is currently a
library information specialist II at the University of New Mexico.  Michael
has 10 years of experience with the book and serials industry, from both
the retail end (working as a periodical manager in a book store) to the
library end. He has gained skills and experience in all aspects of
acquisitions, serials, and preservation/bindery work.  Michael served as
Vice-Chair of the 1996 NASIG Conference Planning Committee.  Michael has
been accepted into the Library and Information Science program at the
University of Texas at Austin beginning Fall 1998.  His main career goal is
to become a serials/acquisitions librarian at an academic library.

  We would like to congratulate Michael on receiving this scholarship.  We
would like to thank NASIG and SISAC for co-sponsoring this scholarship.
