Leading life-changing award opens for entries

Celebrating the value of libraries to people and communities

The CILIP / LiS Libraries Change Lives Award opens for entries this  month, and the judges would like to hear about any library and  information related project that is making a difference to people and  communities.

Established as a leading accolade in the library and information  calendar, the award offers an excellent opportunity for entrants to  share good practice, recognise the efforts of staff and partner  organisations, and bring projects and services to national attention.  

"We welcome entries from any sector of the library and information  world," says Nigel Thomas, who represents CILIP's Community Services  Group as Chair of the judging panel. "They could be reading projects,  learning projects, or projects that promote information. We are looking  for projects that have affected people's lives for the better, whoever  those people might be."

The judges will select three finalists to attend a prestigious award  ceremony at the Library + information Show, which takes place on 20 and  21 April 2005 at The Pavilion, NEC, Birmingham. The overall winner will  receive a trophy and £4,000 to put into their project.  The two other  finalists will receive a certificate and £1,000 each.

Nigel Clear, Event Director for LiS says, "Last year's winner, the  Mobile Library Travellers Project from Essex County Council Libraries,  demonstrated the inspirational work library services do in reaching out  to people often excluded from mainstream society.  I hope that this  year we will uncover many more examples of libraries changing lives."

Cllr Elizabeth Hart, Cabinet Member for Libraries and Lifelong Learning  in Essex says,  "Winning the 2004 Libraries Change Lives Award has  given Essex many opportunities to share good practice with library  colleagues across the UK. It has given the staff involved with the  project some much-deserved recognition and it has meant that we have  been able to work with new partners to offer a better service to  Traveller families across the county. "

Entry forms for the 2005 Award are available from Sadiya Adam-Saib at  CILIP Tel: 020 7255 0650 Email: [log in to unmask] or you can enter  online at www.cilip.org.uk/lcla The closing date is 28 January 2005.
