[ANPPOM-L] Carol June Bradley Award for Historical Research in Music Librarianship

[Carlos Palombini]

2007 CAROL JUNE BRADLEY AWARD: CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

At its 2003 annual meeting, the Music Library Association announced the 
establishment of the Carol June Bradley Award for Historical Research in 
Music Librarianship. Ms. Bradley is Librarian Emeritus at the State 
University of New York at Buffalo, and has been the foremost historian 
of music librarianship. This annual award, in the amount of $1,000, will 
be granted to support studies that involve the history of music 
libraries or special collections; biographies of music librarians; 
studies of specific aspects of music librarianship; and studies of music 
library patrons' activities. In recognition of the 75th anniversary of 
the Music Library Association, the Bradley Award Committee will also 
accept applications for funding necessary for the preparation of 
MLA-history-related exhibits and similar projects and that use materials 
from MLA's Archive.

The grant will be awarded to support costs associated with the research 
process. These may include travel, lodging, meals, supplies, and 
photocopy or microfilm reproduction of source material. There are no 
restrictions as to applicant's age, nationality, profession, or 
institutional affiliation. All proposals will be reviewed entirely on 
the basis of merit.

Applicants should submit the following documents:

  1. A summary of the project
  2. A preliminary budget
  3. A current vita
  4. The names of three references

Within one year of receiving the award, the recipient is required to 
submit a report on how the funds were spent, and on the progress of the 
work supported. Any publication of the recipient's work must state that 
this award helped to support the research process. The deadline for 
receipt of applications is June 15, 2006. Applications received after 
that date will be considered for funding in 2007. Recipients will be 
notified by October 15, 2006 and announced at the MLA annual meeting in 
Pittsburgh, PA, which will be held from February 26 to March 3, 2007.
