The Eunice J. H. Parker Scholarship Award recognizes Eunice J. H. Parker (1921-1984) who was instrumental in founding the CLBC Northern Chapter and worked untiringly as a member until her death. Before and after the forming of this organization, she devoted her time, energy, and much of her career recruiting and encouraging Blacks in the field of librarianship and other educational pursuits. The Eunice J. H. Parker Scholarship Award will be awarded to encourage and support Black students in the attainment of graduate or postgraduate degrees in library and/or information studies. Applicants must submit their letter of acceptance or proof of enrollment in an accredited library school; addresses and phone numbers of at least two references; and an essay. The amount of each award as well as the actual number granted will depend upon available funds. The application must be submitted to Shirley Coaston.
