APPLY NOW! EIFL PUBLIC LIBRARY INNOVATION AWARD
The EIFL Public Library Innovation Award will be awarded to libraries that integrate digital reading and writing to enhance services


For many generations, public libraries have been offering services that promote reading and stimulate creativity through traditional print resources and activities. With digital technology, and changing reading preferences and learning environments, growing numbers of public libraries are integrating digital resources and devices into these services.

The 18th EIFL Public Library Innovation Award, for public libraries integrating digital reading and writing into programmes and activities that enhance people’s reading and creativity, is now open for applications.

By digital reading and writing we mean any reading or writing activity that uses electronic devices, like e-readers, computers or smartphones.

The activity can involve people of any age - children, youth, adults and seniors - and any digital devices or combination of devices.

Tell us your story and enter the competition! The deadline for applications is 12 November 2024.

WHO MAY APPLY?

The call is open to public and community libraries in developing and transition economy countries.

WHAT WILL YOU WIN?

  *   Each winner will receive a trophy, and a prize of US$1,500.
  *   International publicity – EIFL will share your story widely through its publicity channels.
