This
award, established by the Reference Round Table in 1996, is offered to
recognize an outstanding reference tool in Texas History, culture or
commerce. "Reference tool" encompasses bibliographies, indexes,
encyclopedias and other scholarly apparatus. The purpose of the award is
to encourage and acknowledge truly superior accomplishments in research
and scholarship. The award may be granted to a distinguished reference
tool, regardless of format, published or accepted for publication within
three years immediately preceding the closing date for nominations.
Selection will be based on scholarship, style and contribution as a
Texas reference source. The Reference Round Table's Texas Reference
Source Award committee will review all entries and recommend a recipient
to the Executive Committee of the Reference Round Table. Nominations must
be submitted on or before May 1 of each year in order to be
eligible for the award. A winner will be announced following TLA Annual
Assembly that year, and the award will be formally presented during the
next TLA Annual Conference at the Reference Round Table business or program
meeting. Nominations, including complete bibliographic citations, will be
accepted by the Texas Reference Source Award Committee Member listed to
the right. Use the form below or send the required information by mail or
email. |
