ity o f Services in an Aca­
demic Library.”

Lawrence J. McCrank, Danuta A. Nitecki
chair o f the award com ­
mittee, said, “The committee found this pro­
posal to merit support because o f its timeliness 
in an era of accountability and emphasis on 
assessment in higher education other than the 
traditional model of library inventoiy data, and 
current focus on customer satisfaction based 
largely on qualitative factors.”

Nitecki’s career has included positions as 
coordinator o f Illinois research and reference 
activities at the University of Illinois at Urbana- 
Champaign; and coordinator o f automated in­
formation retrieval services, head o f the Interli
braiy Services Department, and interlibrary loan

Karen A. Schmidt, acquisitions/binding librar­
ian at the University o f Illinois at Urbana-Cham
paign, has b een  awarded the 1995 Samuel 
Lazerow Fellowship for Research in Acquisi­
tions or Technical Services in an Academic or 
Research Library.

Donated by the Institute for Scientific Infor­
mation, the award fosters advances in acquisi­
tions or technical services by providing fellow­

ships to librarians for travel or writing in those 
fields.

Schmidt’s research project proposal, “Mar­
keting to Libraries,” will be conducted in two 
parts. Part One will in­
clude in-depth discus­
sions with publishers to 
verify the various tech­
niques they use to mar­
ket their books to librar­
ies. Part Two will use the 
results o f those discus­
sions to formulate a sur­
vey that will be sent to 
1,200 libraries.

Julia Gammon, chair Karen A. Schmidt
of the award committee, 
said, “The committee felt that this proposal was 
significant in that it will collect empirical data 
concerning the way publishers can best mar­
ket books to libraries. Little has been previ­
ously written in this area and most is anecdotal 
evidence.”

Schmidt has also served as assistant acquisi­
tions librarian and head of the Bibliographic 
Searching Unit at Illinois State University; head 
of regional campuses technical services, Latin 
American bibliographer and cataloger, and head 
of the Latin American Reading Room at Ohio 
State University. She authored U nderstanding 
th e B u sin ess o f A cquisitions (ALA, 1990).

The award, $1,000 and a citation, will be 
presented during the ALA Annual Conference 
in Chicago at the ACRL Membership Meeting,

leadership assisted in documenting the history 
and founding of the section, standardizing re­
porting mechanisms, beginning long-range 
planning procedures, and overseeing ties to 
sister sections. . . . Her publications on instruc­
tion and orientation have assisted education and 
behavioral sciences librarians in their daily in­
teractions with library users.”

University o f Wisconsin-Parkside; and coordi­
nator o f the Education/Psychology Division,

Frances F. Jacobson and Michael J. Jacobson 
are the recipients of the ACRL Bibliographic

Bibliographic Instruction 
Publication of the Year 
Award, which recognizes 
their article “Representa­
tive Cognitive Learning 
Theories and BI: A Case 
Stu d y  o f  End U ser 
S e a rch in g ,” ( R e s e a r c h  
Strategies, summer 1993).

Frances F. Jacobson is 
U niversity Laboratory Frances F. Jacob son
High School librarian at 
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 
(UIUC). Her previous positions include refer­
ence librarian and user education coordinator 
at UIUC; and reference/instruction librarian, and 
circulation/reserve librarian at Western State Col­
lege of Colorado.

Michael J. Jacobson is visiting assistant pro­
fessor in educational psychology and instruc­

there include post-doctoral research associate

Study of Reading. At Western State College of 
Colorado he served as Computer Science D e­
partment coordinator and instructional com ­
puting coordinator, and as an instructor o f 
music.

Lori Arp, chair of the award committee, said, 
“This article presents a groundbreaking merger 
of three theories o f cognitive learning which 
are then applied within the environment of bib­
liographic instruction. Jacobson and Jacobson 
present a flexible example which can be emu­
lated in programs of instruction at all levels. 
Their synthesis o f recent developments in learn­
ing theory is masterful, yet easily comprehended 
within the context of current theory in instruc­
tion. This article serves as a model for excel­
lence in both arenas— theory and practice—  
and demonstrates that it is indeed possible to 
‘practice what you preach.’”

The award, a citation, will be presented at 
the BIS dinner during the ALA Annual Confer­
ence in Chicago, Friday, June 23, 1995.

The UWired Freshman Interest Groups (FIGS)
project at the University o f Washington (UW)
Library, Seattle, is the winner o f the 1995 Bib­
liographic Instruction Section Innovation in
Bibliographic Instruction Award.

Led by the library team o f Paula Walker,
Andrea Bartelstein, Theresa Mudrock, and Anne
Zald, with help from Betsy Wilson (associate
director o f libraries for public services), the
UWired FIGS is a collaboration betw een the
University Libraries, undergraduate education,
and computing and communications at UW. Its
primary goal is to integrate information navi­
gation skills and electronic communication into
teaching and learning. Targeting a selected
group o f students and faculty for a year-long
pilot, UWired is serving as a prototype for inte­
grating information and technology use across
the disciplines o f higher education.

Lori Arp, chair o f the award committee, said,
the “UWired Freshman Interest Group project
is a unique, exciting experiment in collabora­
tion through the use o f electronic technology.
The depth, breadth, and sheer ambition o f the
pilot has created a rich and informative model
which has implications in part or as a whole to
many institutions o f learning at all levels. In
the UWired FIGS program, the importance of
technology is placed in the context o f utilizing
it for academic purposes rather than teaching it
as an end in itself.”

The award, a citation, will be presented at
the BIS dinner during the ALA Annual Confer­
ence in Chicago, Friday, Ju n e 23, 1995.

There are two winners, one honorable men­
tion, and one special award for the Katharine 
Kyes Leab and Daniel J. Leab A m erican  B o o k  
Prices Current Exhibition Catalogue Awards for
1995. In Division One (expensive) the winner

is “History in Deed: Medieval Society and the 
Law in England, 1100-1600,” by Carol Symes, 
submitted by the Harvard Law School Library. 
Elaine B. Smyth, chair of the award committee, 
said, “This catalog takes what is inherently a 
very specialized topic . . . and gives it broader 
appeal by showing how the materials can be 
used by researchers in diverse fields. What could 
have been a very dry subject is enlivened and 
handsomely presented.”

In Division Three (inexpensive) the winner 
is “Eric Gill: The Cell of Good Living,” by Mar­
garet L. Smith, submitted by the Houghton Li­
brary at Harvard University, Department of Print­
ing and Graphics. Smyth said, “This compact 
and inexpensively produced catalog makes 
beautiful and appropriate use of the type and 
art created by its subject. . . .  It packs a lot of 
information into a slight, easy-to-handle format.” 

An honorable mention in Division One (ex­
pensive) was given to “J. K. Lilly Jr., Biblio­
phile,” by Jo el Silver, submitted by the Lilly 
Library at Indiana University. Smyth said, “The 
committee felt this catalog merited honorable 
mention because of its excellent marriage of 
content and design. Thoroughly researched, 
well written, and handsomely produced, it is a 
model of its kind.”

A Special Award o f Merit was given to the 
Huntington Library for “The Last Best Hope of 
Earth: Abraham Lincoln and the Promise of 
America” by John H. Rhodehamel and Thomas 
F. Schwartz. Smyth 
said, “This catalog Photo
