The overwhelming response to the inaugural Clarivate Library Innovation Awards has exceeded expectations, receiving a high volume of submissions from libraries worldwide. To ensure a thorough review of each submission by the judging panel, category finalists will now be announced on March 5, 2026.
“The enthusiasm surrounding the Clarivate Library Innovation Awards has been remarkable,” said Yoel Goldenberg, SVP & GM of Clarivate Software Solutions. “We’ve been deeply impressed by the quality, originality, and measurable impact demonstrated across submissions. These entries truly reflect the forward-thinking leadership of Academic and Public libraries worldwide.”
Finalists across ELUNA, IGeLU, and IUG member categories will each receive all-expenses-paid attendance for two library staff members at the respective Clarivate international user group conferences in 2026, where the category winners will be announced and recognized on stage amongst their peers.
