Nominate a Colleague for MAC Award
Do you work with someone who is an inspiring MAC member? Recognizing our colleagues is one of the highest honors we can bestow on our peers. The time to nominate your colleague is now!
Each year, MAC gives a variety of awards to support the valuable contributions of medical and public health librarians to the profession of health sciences librarianship. From research and instruction to outstanding service and leadership, MAC’s professional recognition program supports and encourages the best and brightest in the field.
If you know a MAC member who has shown leadership or initiative in the field, you can nominate them for one of these professional awards:
- MAC Award for Professional Excellence by a Health Sciences Librarian
- MAC Award for Professional Excellence by a New Health Sciences Librarian
- MAC Award for Outstanding Health Sciences Library Paraprofessional
- Marguerite Abel Service Recognition Award
Criteria for the awards can be accessed at https://macmla.org/awards/.
Colleagues who submit a nomination will be entered in a drawing for a free one-year MAC membership.
Members may also self-nominate for any of the awards with a letter of support from a supervisor or a colleague.
The deadline for submitting nominations is June 26, 2020.
A plaque and a cash award of $250.00 will be awarded to the recipients. Awards will be presented at the business meeting during the MAC Annual meeting on October 18-20, 2020 in Pittsburgh, PA.
