We Have a Winner!

First Texas Reference Source Award Given

The Texas Reference Source Award Committee is pleased to announce the first ever winner of the award. Fifteen titles were recommended by Reference Librarians from around the state. Exam copies were reviewed by the committee members, who then met at TLA Assembly in July for voting. And the winner is—The New Handbook of Texas (Texas State Historical Association, 1996). The formal presentation will be made at the RRT program meeting next April in San Antonio.

Recommendations are now being accepted for the 1998 award. Deadline for nominations is May 1, 1998. Criteria and nomination form have been included in the newsletter for your use. Return to any committee member.
