*SLA Award for Public Outreach and Community Service: Call for Nominations*

The submission deadline is *October 15, 2016.*

Created and awarded for the first time by the SLA in 2014
<http://linguisticanthropology.org/about/prizes/>, this award honors
an SLA member
or members for work that effectively impacts public awareness of social
issues involving language and communication and/or represents a
significant service to a particular community outside of the
academy.  Applicants may self-nominate or be nominated.  Such work may be
in any medium including but not limited to books, reports, exhibits,
pedagogical materials/curricula, documentary films, newspaper or magazine
articles, blogs, digitized or broadcast media, and lectures. Eligible work
must have published, presented, or aired during the five years immediately
preceding the submission deadline.

Each nomination should include:
(1) A brief description of the work for which the nominee is being
considered (up to 250 words);
(2) Relevant supporting materials as evidence of increased public awareness
or performance of community service.

A Selection Committee appointed by the SLA President will consider all
applications and may request additional materials as needed. Awards will be
announced at the Annual SLA Business meeting. Since an individual’s
representative work is eligible for five years, this evidence of
accomplishment, with any relevant updates, could be considered in more than
one annual award cycle.
