A justification for Joy's award is presented below. Please join the Committee in congratulating Joy! All my best, Aaron T. ==================================================================================================================== Justification for the Nomination of Joy Kingsolver as the 2015 Fanny Goldstein Merit Award Recipient The Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) Awards Committee is delighted to award the Fannie Goldstein Merit Award to Joy Kingsolver, the Association's longtime archivist and parliamentarian. As archivist, Joy has carefully assembled and organized the crucial documents of the Association's history, including minutes of meetings, photographs, conference papers, and ensured their safekeeping for posterity. As parliamentarian at numerous AJL meetings, she has displayed her expertise in the rules of order and guided participants on proper procedures to ensure that the appropriate rules are followed fairly and that multiple voices are heard. Joy has also played a similar role in the many Board and Council debates and votes that have taken place via e-mail. Words like "ensure" and "make sure" are crucial in understanding the importance of Joy's contributions. All too often, those who work to allow others to shine are overlooked. Joy has performed her challenging roles with her characteristic understatement, modesty, professionalism, and grace. In this the year of AJL's Jubilee conference, the AJL Awards Committee feels that it is especially fitting to honor a member whose work helps us better understand our own history as Hebraica and Judaica archivists and librarians, keepers of the Jewish book and of Jewish papers, and helps provide access to that history for future generations of librarians and scholars. The world of AJL and our profession more broadly will be better understood thanks in no small measure to the tireless efforts of Joy Kingsolver. Joy, we thank you for your work and we honor your achievements! Respectfully submitted, The AJL Awards Committee Aaron Taub, Chairperson Joan Biella, Member Fred Isaac, Member Amalia Warshenbrot, Member
