The Unsung Libraries Initiative

The Unsung Libraries Initiative is now accepting submissions! If you or someone you know is too swamped to get the word out about the amazing work you/they do, this is for you!

We’ve put together a very short and simple application, in which libraries that haven’t recently won any awards or gotten any media attention can say in just a few words how their work matches this year's NJLA themes of Simple Kindness and/or Breaking Barriers.

Twelve libraries will be selected for a visit by NJLA President Jeff Cupo, one per month, to meet with staff and see them in action. They will get a shout-out in the NJLA newsletter and a staff person at one of the twelve will be awarded this year's NJLA President's Award.

Please don't hesitate to reach out to incoming NJLA President, Jeff Cupo with any questions: Email
