This is a reminder that nominations are due no later than Friday, March 8, 2019, for the NLS 2018 Network Regional Library of the Year and the 2018 Network Subregional Library or Advisory and Outreach Center of the Year awards.

The awards honor excellence and innovation in the NLS network of cooperating libraries and highlight the accomplishments of your library over the past year and the vital importance of the service you provide to your patrons.

The winner in each category will receive a $1,000 cash award, and representatives from each winning library and their administering agency will be invited to a celebratory awards luncheon to be held at the Library of Congress on Thursday, May 16, 2019.
