The Gwendolyn S. Cruzat MLA Scholarship honors Dr. Gwendolyn Cruzat, a distinguished leader in health sciences librarianship and library education. It awards up to $5,000 annually to an exceptional student entering the field of medical librarianship. One application covers all three MLA student scholarships, and recipients are notified in March. The award includes MLA membership and conference registration benefits.
Open to students entering a master's program at an ALA-accredited graduate library school who are pursuing a career in health sciences librarianship. At the time of the award, applicants must have completed no more than one-half of their academic program requirements. U.S. or Canadian citizenship or permanent residency is required.
Applicants must submit a single online application used for all three MLA scholarships, including letters of recommendation and a statement of purpose, by November 15. A one-year MLA student membership and free student conference registration are included with the award. Previous MLA scholarship recipients are not eligible.
