Marguerite Abel

This award is given to a MAC member for exemplary service to the Chapter during the past year. The award was named the Marguerite Abel Service Recognition Award in 1994, and the Abel family donated money to begin financing the award. Marguerite (Marge) Abel was the first reference librarian and assistant director at the Health Sciences Library of West Virginia University. Marge Abel retired from that library in 1994.

A plaque and a cash award of $250.00 will be awarded to the recipient. You may nominate yourself for this award with a supporting letter from a colleague or supervisor.

  • serving as an officer or committee chair/member
  • working on special MAC projects
  • developing/teaching courses for MAC members
  • presenting papers or posters at MAC meetings
  • writing/editing for MAC publications
