The Margaret Williams Trust Fund Award was established to promote the development of librarianship in Newfoundland and Labrador. Funds are awarded on a competitive basis to applicants seeking funding for library-related projects or assistance in pursuing graduate studies in librarianship, archival studies, or teacher librarianship.
Lorraine Busby, Chair of the MWTF Board of Trustees, is pleased to announce that the Trust has issued its 2012 award to Heather Buffett in the amount of $1,500.
Originally from St. John’s, NL, Heather holds a Bachelor of Laws degree from the University of New Brunswick, as well as Bachelor of Arts (Major – History, Minor – Political Science) from Memorial University. She will be pursuing a postgraduate degree in Library and Information Studies at the University of Western Ontario and hopes to return to Newfoundland upon its completion to work as a legal librarian.
Congratulations Heather!
