Scholarships, New England Library Association

Posted February 28, 2014

The New England Library Association scholarship program provides financial assistance for worthy students pursuing a Master’s Degree in Library Science. Currently, two full-time scholarships of $2,000 and two part-time scholarships of $1,000 are awarded annually.

The committee cannot accept direct applications and candidates must be recommended by an accredited New England or New York library school. Candidates complete applications and submit them to the Deans of their library schools (deliver, mail or email to Assistant Dean Em Claire Knowles) by March 15. Each library school administration may select up to two eligible candidates (one full-time, one part-time) and submit them by April 1 to educational-assistance@nelib.org. Selected candidates are notified in late May and funds are awarded in October of the same year.
