First Biennial Innovation Award

The Library Company of Philadelphia

Call for Proposals

The Library Company of Philadelphia is delighted to welcome applications for its First Biennial Innovation Award. The recipient of the Innovation Award will receive a $2,000 prize, a spotlight interview in our “Talking in the Library” podcast, and recognition at the 288th Annual Dinner of the Library Company of Philadelphia (October 29, 2019).

The Innovation Award will recognize a project—digital or analog—that critically and creatively expands the possibilities of humanistic scholarship. Proposals will be evaluated by a committee of leaders in higher education, research libraries, and cultural heritage institutions who will evaluate how proposed projects make scholarly work new again. That scholarly work might take the form of an article, chapter, academic monograph, scholarly edition, or other project, in either print or digital form. “Innovation” will be defined broadly, and may include refashioning scholarly work with new partners, for new audiences, or into new forms.

We welcome proposals from applicants in all fields and at all career stages, including graduate students, junior and senior faculty, as well as independent scholars. Visit the Innovation Award web page for complete details.

Submissions are due by August 1, 2019.
