Dear Colleagues,
The Travel Awards Committee is very pleased to announce Archivision has sponsored a travel award of $1,000 for an international applicant and/or an architectural image librarian to attend the annual conference “Capitalizing on Creativity” in Providence, Rhode Island April 3-6, 2013. Thank you for making this possible, Archivision!
If you haven’t done so already, please go to the conference website to check out the program http://vra2013annualconference.sched.org and information about costs http://www.vraweb.org/conferences/vra31/registration/

The deadline for receipt of applications will be Monday, November 26, 10 am EST.
Before you apply, PLEASE READ “Travel Award Rules and Guidelines”, “Tips for VRA Travel Awards Applicants”, and “Types of Travel Awards”, all linked here as PDFs: http://www.vraweb.org/about/awards/index.html#travel
The form is also linked from the What’s New section on the VRA homepage.
You do not need to be a member of the VRA to apply for a travel award, but please note that upon winning an award an applicant who is not a member of VRA must purchase a membership, with the option to use funding from the travel award to do this.
So if you’re working in a foreign country (including Canada!) or are an image professional working in an architectural program, don’t delay – apply today!
Good luck,
Heidi Eyestone & Vicky Brown
Co-Chairs, VRA Travel Awards Committee
