Applicants must: * Work currently as a librarian or para-professional * Provide a ONE PAGE resume (not longer!) * Submit an essay of no more than 2 pages double-spaced responding to the prompt below: "If not the "Big Deal", Then What? The Current Model is Unsustainable." How many times have you heard that before? With every library conference featuring sessions about "Breaking the Big Deal," green/gold open access, and patron-driven acquisition, the question still remains: If the current model is really is unsustainable, what are REAL alternatives? More importantly, what alternative business models is YOUR library pursuing and why? Is your library satisfied with the current model? If so, why? DEADLINE for Scholarship Applications is Friday SEPTEMBER 14, 2012. Please send applications or questions to LibraryRelations@acs.org SUBJECT LINE "Charleston Scholarship Application". S.
