James G. Olle Student Scholarship
At the July 2001 meeting of the Library History Group committee it was agreed that LHG would fund an annual scholarship of £500 to improve the
level of activity in library history. The scholarship is named after the late James G. Olle, an active teacher and writer in library history. The
scholarship has the full support of his daughter. Prospective candidates for the scholarship should be undergraduate or postgraduate students,
undertaking a discrete piece of advanced work, and members of the LHG. The winner of the award must present the findings of the work in the
public domain, either as a published report or via the presentation of a paper. A report in the Newsletter will be the acceptable minimum. Grants of
up to £500 will be made on the basis of a submitted budget. The award will be made on the decision of the LHG committee. The second award
will be made in the calendar year 2003.
Expressions of interest or applications which should include a CV, a brief statement of plans, a draft budget and the name and address of at least
one referee should be sent to the Group chair.
