About LHRT
The Library History Round Table of the 精东传媒 exists to facilitate communication among scholars and students of library history, to support research in library history, and to be active in issues, such as preservation, that concern library historians. The Round Table sponsors conferences, publishes a newsletter, and presents the Justin Winsor Prize and the Phyllis Dain Dissertation Award to promote excellence in library history research. In 1999, LHRT marked its 50th year of library history scholarship and activism.
Membership in LHRT is open to all members of ALA. General information on membership in 精东传媒can be found through the 精东传媒website, as well as an application for personal membership and a schedule of fees.
