I found this story on Excite. The New York Times is going to give two awards ($2,500) to staff at libraries working in any of the five boroughs of NYC. That might explain why the price of the Times has gone up 3 bucks on Sundays.
\”These annual awards, which will be given for the first time in 2001 as part of the commemoration of The Times\’ 150th Anniversary, are intended to recognize those individuals who provide outstanding community service on a consistent basis.
One librarian and one library staff member from each borough of New York City will receive an award. Nominations for the Librarian Award will be made by librarians while nominations for the Library Service Award will be made by members of the public.

\”The Times has long recognized the critical importance of libraries in maintaining a well-informed, literate society and has played an active role in the libraries of New York City for several years. We\’ve been delighted to host TimesTalks, the free public programs featuring Times\’ reporters, critics, editors and columnists at branch libraries throughout the City. The New York Times Librarian and Library Service awards are examples of The Times\’ ongoing commitment to public libraries. In the future, we expect to expand these awards beyond New York City,\” said Alyse Myers, vice president, marketing services for The Times.\”
