Each year, the Los Angeles Chapter
of American Society for Information Science and Technology presents
its Contributions to Information Science Award to one or more
individuals who have made significant contribution to the field.
Recipients are those individuals who are recognized by their colleagues

inspire others, or whose singular contribution to the field of
information science has been particularly significant.

The recipient need not be an ASIST member, nor living in the

to be the speaker at the Awards meeting in the Fall. This offers
a great opportunity to recognize a leader or a visionary in our
profession, and learn more about his/her contribution.
