Keystone Systems wishes to recognize the support that volunteers and staff provide to their libraries each year.  We do so with the Julie Klauber Award.  Each library may nominate one staff member or volunteer.

Nominated individuals should: 

• Work with KLAS in their daily job functions.

• Show an outstanding service to their library and the community in the spirit of Julie Klauber during his/her time with the library.

• Appreciate and benefit from attending the KLAS Users' Conference.  

The selected Julie Klauber Award Recipient will receive a trip¹ to the 2012 KLAS Users' Conference in Columbia, SC, April 10-12, 2012. 

The finalists will be determined by a selection committee².  Kay Holloman, CEO, Keystone Systems, will determine the winner after consulting the finalists' supervisors.
