Hello Chapter Chairs, I promised to follow up with more scholarship information and you all probably saw that the Standards registration info came out yesterday. So here are the numbers: 1. The break-even cost for GBW is essentially the student registration rate: $255. 2. The cost for a single occupancy hotel room for 4 nights (Wednesday October 19-Saturday October 22) is $934.08. 3. A ticket to the banquet is $70. We have a budget from the previous auction to award 9 full scholarships. Your chapter is welcome to sponsor additional folks at whatever level you would like. For example, you can contribute just registration, registration and banquet, etc. I think in the past we have not expected chapter scholarship recipients to volunteer their time the same way other recipients do. But I'm sure there will be volunteer needs at the event, if you would like to add that as a stipulation. Larry can update you on your chapter account balances so that you can make an informed decision. Keep in mind that Standards is in California in 2023, so we anticipate costs to be higher. I think the scholarship committee can find a way to coordinate with you on the application process, if that would help. You could encourage your members to apply through the regular scholarship process ( https://gbw.formstack.com/forms/scholarships2022). The committee will select the 9 full scholarships from the entire pool according to need, then we can recommend a ranked list of remaining applicants from your chapter. We will be using an existing matrix, so that work will already be done. Just a thought. Think about it and get in touch if I can facilitate in any way. I know scholarships of any kind will be appreciated with the high travel costs this year. Take care, HH /////////////////////////////////////////////////////// *Henry Hebert *(he/him) Vice President, Guild of Book Workers 919.360.3425 | vicepresident@guildofbookworkers.org

Hello Henry, Our California chapter would like to sponsor a CA member with a scholarship for Standards. We would like to coordinate with your application process. Can you send info on what matrix you are using for selection. Please contact me about the process of chapter coordination. I know time is short.

Thanks to the California and Midwest Chapters! I will let Jenn and Larry know about these. The scholarship form doesn't close until July 8th, so we still have time to iron out the scholarship committee's process. It's important that you decide if you are going to sponsor anyone sooner though, so we can hold enough registrations in reserve. Larry also informed me that in the past two chapters have co-sponsored a single scholarship, so that could be another option. I can handle registrations, but I will need to clarify how we should do hotel reservations if you are offering that. I will follow up. You can announce to your members that the chapter will be offering a scholarship and instruct them to apply through the regular scholarship form: https://gbw.formstack.com/forms/scholarships2022 The scoring matrix looks like this: 1- Student? 2- First Standards? 3- First scholarship? 4- Financial Need 5- Personal/ Professional Benefit 6- Reference #1 7- Reference #2 Columns 1-3 just get a score of either 0 or 1. Columns 4-7 are scored on a scale of 1-3 by each committee member based on application materials and we take the average. Add Questions 1-3 and averages of 4-7 together and we should have a ranked list of applicants. When the committee is done with selection of the 9 national org scholarships, I can sort remaining applicants by chapter and send your list with our scores. I can also share statements of interest and reference letters so you can make the final determination. How does that sound? I think we have a board meeting next week, so we can discuss further.

Hi, Henry and All—Yes, the SE Chapter would like to sponsor a student scholarship. Thanks so much for keeping us in the loop regarding details. Meanwhile, our board will discuss what amount of funding we are able to contribute. Many thanks!
