Library Diversity Initiative
The State Library recently announced receipt of a $1 million grant from the Institute for Museum and Library Services for recruiting and educating 30 ethnically/racially diverse students for Indiana’s Librarians Leading in Diversity project. Potential candidates must apply to the Indiana University School of Library and Information Science (IU SLIS) by September 15, 2008. The Fellowship Application process is open until 4:00 p.m. on Friday, October 3, 2008.
Ten candidates a year for three years are eligible to be selected for this Master of Library Science (MLS) Degree Fellowship program. Potential candidates who have applied to IU SLIS, and completed the fellowship application must also request two letters of recommendation from people (not relatives) who can speak to their professionalism and leadership potential. See the Fact Sheet for more details.

This is a great little scholarship if your pursuing a teaching degree. In fact, I had this scholarship ages ago and I’m very glad to see it’s still around!
