OLAC Research GrantThis grant is awarded annually by the OLAC Executive Board to encourage research in the field of audiovisual cataloging. Proposals will be judged by a committee appointed by the Board on the basis of practicability and perceived value to the audiovisual cataloging community. The OLAC Research Grant Committee is usually composed of the OLAC vice president (Chair of the Grant Committee), the previous grant winner, and an additional OLAC member. Research Grant proposals are accepted on a rolling basis. For more information or to submit a proposal, please contact the committee chair or follow the guidelines here. |
The OLAC Conference Scholarship provides funds for a member of OLAC to attend an OLAC Conference. Any personal member of OLAC who has never attended an OLAC Conference is eligible for the scholarship. The recipient must attend the full Conference, including the membership meeting where the award will be announced, and must write a brief report for the OLAC Board indicating what they gained and found to be most helpful in their work. Applications will be received and evaluated by a Scholarship Committee appointed by the OLAC Board. More information is available here (OLAC members only).
