Charleston Coming and Goings: News and Announcements for the Charleston Library Conference

摘要

Big news! Springer Nature has created a new scholarship for librarians to honor Cynthia Hurd, a dedicated librarian, whose career spanned more than 31 years in Charleston public and academic libraries, including the St. Andrews Regional Library and the College of Charleston. On June 17, 2015, Cynthia Hurd was killed along with eight other people at the historic Emanuel AME Church. The Cynthia Graham Hurd Memorial Scholarship for attendance to the Charleston Library Conference provides $1,500 to a librarian who has demonstrated an active interest in the profession, but has not had an opportunity to attend the annual gathering of librarians due to lack of institutional funding. The scholarship is to be applied to the costs of registration, travel, accommodations and meals.
