******2014 DLF/CLIR + ER&L Cross-Pollinator Travel Awards******

The Digital Library Federation <http://www.diglib.org/> (DLF), a program of

is pleased to support a travel grant for the Electronic Resources and
Libraries Conference <http://www.electroniclibrarian.org/> in Austin, March

attend ER&L to a library professional who would not typically come to the
Electronic Resources & Libraries Conference but who can identify a
connection with their work.  The goal of the DLF/CLIR +ER&L TRAVEL AWARD is
to bring a cross-pollinator –a library professional to ER&L who can provide
unique perspectives to our work and share a vision of the library world
from their perspective — to the conference. The travel grant includes a
conference registration, air travel costs, and housing in Austin.

*Application Requirements: *Applicants will be required to supply contact
information as well as to indicate to how access to the ER&L conference may
assist the applicant in achieving an expansion of their professional
horizons. It is important for the applicant to describe what he or she can
uniquely bring to the conference. The winning applicant must be able
to travel to Austin.

*Eligibility:*The applicant should be a practicing library professional
seeking more exposure on the trends in e-resources and digital services who
has not attended ER&L and is willing to share their perspective to
the ER&L community. The winning applicant will receive conference
registration, air travel costs, and housing up to $2200 per winner.
