2010 Librarian of the Year Award - Anne Hughes Glen Carbon Centennial Library
Presented by the Illinois Library Association and LAC Group.
Rationale
This award recognizes a librarian's distinguished service and leadership in Illinois libraries. Generally, the librarian so honored will have made an impact locally, state-wide, and nationally. However, if an individual's service is unusually outstanding on one level, then the nomination can rest on that area alone. Librarians so honored will have demonstrated a commitment to libraries, and especially Illinois libraries, which can serve as a model for others in the profession.
Eligibility
The eligible librarian is any professional staff member of an Illinois library and member of the association.
