United for Libraries is accepting nominations for the ALA Trustee Citation through April 5, 2019.

The ALA Trustee Citation, established in 1941 to recognize public library Trustees for distinguished service to library development, honors the best contributions and efforts of the estimated 60,000 American citizens who serve on library boards.

It is presented during the Opening General Session of the ALA Annual Conference. Recipients are expected to be present to accept the award, and expenses for attending must be borne by the recipients or their library organizations.

Trustee service may have been performed on the local, state, regional or national level or at a combination of levels. Equal consideration is given to Trustees of libraries of all sizes.
