MLA Scholarship

Post

A scholarship of up to $5,000 is awarded annually by the Medical Library Association (MLA) to a student who shows excellence in scholarship and potential for accomplishment in health sciences librarianship. The scholarship is announced at the annual meeting of the association, where the recipient will also receive a one-year student membership in MLA and free inclusive student registration at the association’s annual meeting.

The applicant must be entering a master’s program at an ALA-accredited graduate library school or, at the time of the granting of the scholarship (February), have completed no more than one-half of the academic requirements of the graduate program. The applicant must be a citizen of or have permanent residence in either the United States or Canada. Past recipients of the MLA Scholarship or the MLA Scholarship for Minority Students are not eligible to apply. Membership in MLA is not required.
