From:Stephanie Bonjack [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, July 06, 2012 1:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [alaaffil] Diversity Scholarship: Please forward Dear Colleagues, Would you please forward the following announcement? We are hoping to attract applicants to this new program. Washington, DC—The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) has awarded a Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program grant to the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) to fund a new partnership with the Music Library Association (MLA). The ARL/MLA Diversity and Inclusion Initiative (ARL/MLA DII) will seek to address the need for professional staff in music and performing arts libraries to better reflect evolving demographics of students and faculty in music and performing arts higher education. Academic research libraries are in need of trained professionals from traditionally underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups who have the experience and skills to work with music and performing arts collections and scholars. ARL and MLA—along with partner libraries at the University at Buffalo, SUNY; the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; the University of North Texas; and the University of Pittsburgh—will recruit 15 diverse students with educational backgrounds in music to participate in the three-year program. The ARL/MLA DII will provide financial support for master of library and information science education, paid membership in the American Library Association and MLA, mentoring by a music library/information professional from a partner library, paid internships at partner institutions, career skills workshops, and career placement services for the students. The goal of the program is to help create a diverse, well-qualified cadre of new LIS professionals who are equipped with the skills and knowledge to address the transformative professional roles in music and performing arts libraries in the 21st century.
