Nominations are open through September 30, 2024.
Librarians touch the lives of the people they serve every day. Since the award was established in 2008, library users nationwide have submitted more than 23,000 nominations detailing how librarians have gone above and beyond in their commitment to inclusivity, literacy, and digital access. Only 160 librarians have received the distinguished honor.

American Library Association (ALA) member leaders will select the award-winning librarians from thousands of nominations, and each selected librarian will receive $5,000 in recognition of their outstanding public service.
While only ten librarians are selected each year for the award, all nominated librarians receive copies of their nominations and see how much their communities love them.
