MTSU User Services Librarian and Volunteer Voices co-chairman Ken Middleton is the winner of the 2009 Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) Women’s Studies Section (WSS) Award for Significant Achievement in Woman’s Studies Librarianship.
“Ken’s latest impressive achievement in women’s studies librarianship is his database Discovering American Women’s History Online, which brings together 405 digital collections of primary sources in women’s history in a format that has multiple browse and search options,” said Jennifer Gilley, chair of the WSS award committee and head librarian at Penn State University’s Elisabeth S. Blissell Library. “Each collection is annotated and assigned subject headings to make it more accessible to women’s studies researchers. The awards committee predicts widespread use for this amazing resource.”
