John Cotton Dana Development Grant
Raised to $5,000
$2,000 Increase for Cash Prize Accompanying Library
Public Relations Award
New York, New York, January 16, 2008
The H.W. Wilson Company, sponsor of the John Cotton Dana Library
Public Relations Award since 1946, has now increased the cash prize
that comes with the award by $2000. Libraries that receive the JCD
Award this year will enjoy a $5000 development grant (formerly
$3000).
The John Cotton Dana Award is one of the most
coveted accolades among U.S. libraries, an honor that cuts across
boundaries of library size and type. Named for librarian John Cotton
Dana (1856-1929), the JCD award celebrates Dana's vision of the
library as a beacon for the building of community through the public
affairs programs that strengthen bonds between libraries and the
citizenry. Visit the H.W. Wilson
