AALL Government Documents Special Interest Section Awards Student Grant
The Government Documents Special Interest Section of the American
Association of Law Libraries (AALL GD-SIS) is pleased to announce the
winner of its 2001 Student Grant: Mr. Scott Matheson, student in the law
librarianship program at the University of Washington Information School
and intern at the Gallagher Law Library at the University of Washington.
Mr. Matheson is especially interested in how changing business models in
both the government and private sectors might reduce public access to
vital government information. Attending the AALL Annual Meeting and
Conference will provide Mr. Matheson the opportunity to learn about the
law library profession outside the classroom.
The AALL GD-SIS Student Grant is given to financially assist a student
currently enrolled in an ALA accredited library and information studies
master's program in attending the AALL Annual Meeting & Conference.
Preference is given to those individuals interested in government
information and a career in law libraries.
The American Association of Law Libraries was founded in 1906 to promote
and enhance the value of law libraries to the legal and public
communities, to foster the profession of law librarianship, and to provide
leadership in the field of legal information.
The Government Documents SIS (GD-SIS) was established in 1974 to
disseminate information on government documents to AALL members, to
further the continuing education of law librarians in documents
librarianship, to coordinate the activities of law librarians in
representing their interests to public and private groups, and to work in
cooperation with documents groups in other associations and organizations.
For further information regarding the Association or the Section, see our
website at www.aallnet.org. Questions about the grant can be directed to
Georgia Chadwick, AALL Government Documents SIS Grants Committee Chair, at
