SLANZA Award nominations now open

SLANZA encourages and rewards excellence in school libraries, recognising the success and achievement of those working in and with school libraries, with a series of annual awards.

At the National Executive meeting in March it was decided that we should re-instate annual SLANZA Awards and present at every AGM rather than just at conference.  This year's AGM is in Wellington on 21 July.  Nominations are open now and close 21 June.

The Award's are listed below:

•    Award of merit for information literacy
  
•    Award of merit for literacy and enjoyment of reading
  
•    Award of merit for promotion
  
•    Award of merit for research
  
•    Award of merit for library assistant
  
•    Principal's award
  
•    Certificate of appreciation
  
•    Certificate of recognition

Please consider those around you who are worthy of recognition and either nominate them or encourage them to apply.
