Local library staff awarded Library Science tuition scholarships From Kim Saylor Brannock/Cathrine Giles Frankfort, KY - Eleven public library staff have been awarded the Library Science Tuition Scholarship for the fall 2023 semester, including Keri Burton with the Taylor County Public Library, and Michelle Yates with the Casey County Public Library. The scholarships were awarded in partnership with the Kentucky State Board for the Certification of Librarians and the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives, an agency of the Education and Labor Cabinet. Kentucky law requires public libraries be staffed by personnel certified by the Kentucky State Board for the Certification of Librarians. To help ensure public libraries meet statutory requirements, the board offers these scholarships to assist public library staff in completing college-level library science courses. "The Kentuckians who work in our libraries serve their communities, empower our people and instill the importance of reading and learning in our kids," said Gov. Andy Beshear. "These libraries are a resource to our families, including my own, and I am proud to see the staff rewarded with scholarships so they can continue this important work." The scholarships award $750 per semester for students enrolled in a four-year program and $350 per semester for students enrolled in a two-year program. Scholarship funds are awarded for the spring and fall semesters and may be utilized for undergraduate or graduate courses. "These scholarships provide local libraries with needed funding to support their staff's professional development," said Libraries and Archives Commissioner Denise Lyons. "We have seen the direct, positive impact that knowledgeable, qualified library staff bring to a community and we're happy to be a part of this commitment to learning." The Library Science Tuition Scholarship has been awarded to the following recipients for the fall 2023 semester:
