St. Clair will receive a $5,000 award on Thursday, March 12, at the opening keynote session of the ACRL 14th National Conference in Seattle. The award, sponsored by YBP Library Services, recognizes an outstanding member of the library profession who has made a significant national or international contribution to academic/research librarianship and library development. “Gloriana St. Clair is deserving of this award on all counts. She epitomizes the Librarian-LeaderScholar model through her long and notable career as an academic librarian, her contributions to ACRL and other professional organizations and in particular her record of scholarship and scholarly contributions with both national and international influence and impact,” said award committee Chair Robin Wagner, director of the Gettysburg College Library. “St. Clair demonstrates a deep commitment to academic librarianship and has an extraordinary record of scholarship and service to the profession. She is among a handful of people who have been instrumental in reshaping our professional literature, setting high standards for scholarship and writing, while making the literature meaningful and accessible to both researchers and practitioners.” St. Clair has a distinguished record of service to the profession. She has contributed to the body of scholarship and scholarly communication by serving as editor of three prestigious journals – College & Research Libraries (1990-96), Journal of Academic Librarianship (1996-2000) and Portal: Libraries and the Academy (2000-03). During her tenures as editor, she was responsible for publishing many groundbreaking contributions to the body of scholarly literature in academic and research librarianship. She served as a member of the C&RL, C&RL News and Publications in Librarianship editorial boards, along with the ACRL Publications Committee.
