Reminder: '26 Evy Nordley Award Application Now Available

MALF wants to hear what you’ve been up to, and our annual Evy Nordley Award is the perfect mechanism for you to share!

Any Friends-supported project is eligible for consideration, provided that (1) project implementation began after January 1, 2025; and (2) either the Friends or their Minnesota library was the primary beneficiary. Top prize is $1,000.

Common project types include special events, successful fundraisers, membership drives, and advocacy campaigns – but the sky is the limit! Click here for more examples, as well as complete details around eligibility.

You have until Friday, July 10 to apply, and the application form will be available at mnlibraryfriends.org through that date. Finalists will be notified later in the summer and honored during a special fall event (TBA)!
