Once the paper is accepted for presentation by any IFLA section at the World Congress (not a satellite conference), you may then send your full paper to SET to apply for the award not later than 15 April 2016.

The winner will receive in total up to 1000 € to support the current IFLA Congress registration fee as well as visa, economy airfare and economical lodging. Furthermore the paper will be recommended for publication in the IFLA Journal. Second and third place finalists will receive a certificate.
