IPSWICH, Mass. — July 21, 2015. Applications are now being accepted for a scholarship to attend the Charleston Conference through a grant sponsored by EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO). The EBSCO Charleston Conference Scholarship awards up to $1000 for conference registration and other expenses related to attending the conference.

The Charleston Conference is an informal annual gathering of librarians, publishers, electronic resource managers, consultants, and vendors of library materials in Charleston, S.C., from November 4-7, to discuss issues of importance to them all. It is designed to be a collegial gathering of individuals from different areas who discuss the same issues in a non-threatening, friendly, and highly informal environment. Begun in 1980, the Charleston Conference has grown from 20 participants in 1980 to over 1,600 in 2014.

Scholarship applicants must reside in the United States or Canada and currently be employed as a librarian or para-professional. The application consists of providing one professional recommendation, a curriculum vitae and a short essay that describes what the applicant's library will be like in five years. To apply, send the documents via email to Kate Burgess at kburgess@ebsco.com by Tuesday, Sept. 1.
