The 2008 Alliance Library System has announced the winner of its 2008 ALS Librarian of the Year Award, sponsored by Pearl Technology.

This year's Librarian of the Year Award recipient is Barbara A. Galik, ALS President from 2005-2008 and Executive Director of the Cullom-Davis Library at Bradley University.
