ABOUT THE AWARD

Guidelines for Honorary Life Membership

01

To be eligible for Honorary Life Membership, an individual shall have made a contribution of outstanding and lasting importance to theological libraries and have a record of active involvement in the Association.

02

The individual shall have made a contribution to theological libraries in Australia and/or New Zealand of more than local impact.

03

Honorary Life Membership should recognise an individual contribution rather than an individual representing a group accomplishment.

04

Only living persons may be nominated for Honorary Life Membership.

05

Honorary Life Memberships are not necessarily bestowed each year, but more than one such honour may be awarded in any given year.

06

A non-member who supports the objects of the Association may be appointed as an Honorary Life Member at the Board's discretion (see Section 3 of the Constitution).
