Congrats to Veronica Wells on winning the Music Library Association’s Best of Chapters competition for her presentation at the Fall 2024 Southeast Music Library Association chapter meeting.
Each chapter’s nomination was evaluated on criteria of impact, originality, coherence, research quality, and narrative appeal. Veronica's presentation, “The Library’s Responsibility Towards National Music: The Western Canon, Americanism, and Segregation in Music Collections in the Early 20th Century” received high marks for her chapter, SEMLA.
The Southeast Chapter of the Music Library Association, Inc. (SEMLA), is a non-stock, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the establishment, use, and growth of music libraries and collections of music materials in the Southeast. It encourages communication and cooperation with libraries and music collections not affiliated with the Music Library Association to determine how the Chapter may be of assistance to the individual library.
Congratulations Veronica!
