We know library-land gets a little funky in August, and we hope that’s the reason folks have passed up the opportunity to put their favorite library in the running for our Technology Planning Awards at WebJunction. It’s not a fortune, but five hundred bucks can go far when budgets are tight!
Please take advantage of our extended deadline: Friday, September 2. This is a great opportunity to get the word out about good things happening in any library with public access. (Details below…)

Do you know of an organization that provides effective public access to computers? Do you want to share with others the success of a public access program and how it affects local communities? Did your library — or another you know of — embark on a technology planning process, and then pull it off with great success? If you answered yes to any of the above, the WebJunction Community wants to hear from you!
WebJunction is an online community for library staff “where minds meet” to share ideas, solve problems, take online courses — and have fun. In our second year, we continue our awards program to highlight the extraordinary work of our libraries in the United States, Tribal and First Nations, and Canada that are committed to providing public access to technology and information in their communities. Winners are announced quarterly in one of four categories: technology planning, innovative content and uses of technology, building digital opportunities through community engagement, and sustainability. The deadline for entries or nominations for the Technology Planning category is Friday, September 3. Libraries will be judged in categories of similar organizations, based on the number of individuals served annually, so that contestants are awarded in light of their peer organizations.
