Give to the RBMS Scholarship Fund

We invite you to support the future leaders of the profession as they gain the experience, knowledge, and connections essential for growth.

ACRL and RBMS are able to award more RBMS Conference scholarships thanks to donors like you. Your support expands access to professional development for library workers from historically marginalized and underrepresented communities. 

The RBMS Scholarship Fund, part of the Friends of ACRL, helps diversify the future of the special collections profession by opening doors for emerging leaders. We are deeply grateful for your generosity and commitment to the profession’s future.

Donations received before December 11, 2026, will be allocated to 2027 RBMS Conference scholarship awards.
