The Gloria Hoegh Memorial Fund Education for Rural Librarians Scholarship will be awarded to support Wisconsin librarians or library support staff working in rural communities who plan to attend a continuing education program. This scholarship is available to librarians who must be a WLA member who is a library employee working in a Wisconsin community with a current population of 5,000 or less, or who works with library employees in those communities; and are planning to attend a workshop, conference, or other continuing education program within or outside Wisconsin. Applicants will be evaluated on the basis of their experience and background in library work; benefits of the scholarship, including potential to contribute to rural librarianship; and their need and desire for the scholarship. Affirmative action and equal opportunity principles will be applied. Racial or ethnic minorities, women and persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply and may identify themselves as such if they wish. Applicants must submit a completed application form, along with information on the proposed continuing education program.
