José
Aponte, Executive Director of the Pikes Peak Library District, has
been selected as the 2004 Trejo Librarian of the Year Award by
REFORMA, a national affiliate of the American Library Association that
promotes library and information services to Latinos and the
Spanish-speaking community. Each year REFORMA recognizes a colleague who
has made exemplary contributions to the library profession in service to
the Latino community.
In selecting Aponte, the Librarian of the Year
Committee noted, “His outstanding library work -- locally and
nationwide, contributions to REFORMA, and the promotion of Latino
culture make him a model to follow by new and veteran librarians alike.
He validates our belief that librarians can make a difference.
Librarians can be successful at what they do at local and national
levels.”
