ACRL-Oregon K12/Academic Collaboration Scholarship Application
ACRL-Oregon seeks to foster collaboration between academic and school library workers. The role of school libraries is vitally important and is in many ways interrelated with the work of academic libraries and the students we all serve.  Up to $1,000 is available per year for this scholarship.  Applications will be reviewed at two points during the year--or until the money runs out.  

How can the scholarship be used?  
This funding opportunity covers any collaboration between at least one school library employee and at least one academic library worker that the applicant(s) can make a good case for. This includes, but is not limited to:
* Sponsorship to attend, exhibit, or present at a relevant conference (OASL, regional conferences, or others).
* Creation of programming, such as a conference, workshop, unconference, or pre-conference.
* Work on a collaborative research project.
* Something else we haven’t thought of!
