On Behalf Of Ellingson, Margaret W. Please pardon any duplication. Please feel free to forward to any regional, state or local libraries or library consortia with which you are affiliated. Thanks! The 2017 Rethinking Resource Sharing Innovation Award: Call for Nominations The Rethinking Resource Sharing (RRS) Innovation Award recognizes
and honors an individual or institution for changes they have made to improve users’ access to information through resource sharing in their library, consortium, state, province or country. The purpose of the award is to showcase innovation in resource sharing
around the world and to encourage other librarians and libraries to make changes in their resource sharing operations to improve service to library users. RRS looks for efforts in which people have taken the initiative to address a need on their own rather
than waiting for others to provide solutions for resource sharing challenges. The 2016 Innovation Award winner was the IDS Project for its Online
Learning Institute, which was developed not only to meet the needs of IDS Project members but also to provide nationwide support for resource sharing training and discussion. Click here to
see the 2016 winning nomination in detail. The Rethinking Resource Sharing Innovation Award consists of a $500 cash award and a citation honoring the winning nominee(s). Atlas
Systems is once again generously sponsoring the 2017 award. Eligibility: Individuals, library institutions, and/or consortia from around the world may be nominated for the award. Individual nominees must have been employed in a library (anywhere in the world) and have
held some responsibility for their institution's resource sharing services at the time the innovation was implemented. Innovations must have gone live (been made available to library users), at least as a pilot or trial, since January 2014. Application process: Self-nominations as well as nominations for other individuals, institutions or consortia are accepted. Nominations should consist of a clear description of the new service or change in service
that has improved resource sharing for library users in your institution, consortium, etc. Please be sure to include the following information:
