[SOA] Call for nominations - Waldo Gifford Leland Award

[Proffitt, Kevin]

Have you read that great new book about Archives?

If you have, why don't you consider nominating it for the Waldo Gifford Leland Award?

The Leland Award subcommittee of the Society of American Archivists invites you to nominate a monograph, finding aid, or documentary publication (periodicals are not eligible) published in North America in 2006 for the Waldo Gifford Leland Award.  Works that exhibit "writing of superior excellence and usefulness in the field of archival history, theory, and practice" are eligible.

Established in 1959, the award honors American archival pioneer Waldo Gifford Leland, president of the Society of American Archivists in the 1940s and one of the driving forces behind the founding of the National Archives.

Nomination forms can be downloaded from: http://www.archivists.org/recognition/awards_form.pdf.  

The deadline for applications is February 28, 2007.
