YALSA’s Young Adult Literature Symposium Stipend enables two qualified recipients to attend the symposium, which will be held in St. Louis, Nov. 2-4, 2012.

Each stipend offers up to $1,000: one to a library worker who works directly with young adults, with at least one year of experience; the second is to a student enrolled in an ALA-accredited MLS program (you must be a MLS student as of Nov. 2, 2012) with a focus on serving young adults in a library setting. 

Applications are due by June 15.

Applicants must be personal members of YALSA (student membership is okay for the student stipend). Incomplete applications will not be accepted. Previous applicants are not eligible.
