The Environment and Resource Management Division (ERMD) of the Special Libraries Association (SLA) invites applications for its 2007 ERMD Student Award.

The ERMD Student Award recognizes a student who is especially interested in pursuing a career as an information professional dealing with environment and resource management issues. A $1,000 award will be given to a student enrolled in an ALA accredited master’s degree program, and who is a member of SLA. This award is meant to promote both current and future involvement in and commitment to the library and information science profession prior to, during, and after the master’s program.

To be considered for the award, a student must write a 300-500 word essay describing his or her interest in the issues facing information professionals in the environment and natural resources fields. Essays should be labeled with the student’s name, contact information, and educational institution.

The award will be presented at the 2007 SLA Annual Conference, which will be held in early June in Denver, Colorado. The winner is encouraged, but not required, to attend the annual conference.

Deadline for receiving submissions is February 2, 2007. Please send submissions via email to ERMD Director Jan Hutchins at jan@turi.org, with the subject line “ERMD Student Award Application.”
