CLIR Announces Pocket Burgundy Awards
The award’s second year will support four publications
CLIR today announced award recipients for its Pocket Burgundy publication series. The series, which was launched in 2021, derives its name from the deep red covers of CLIR’s traditional research reports and focuses on shorter pieces—20 to 50 pages—addressing current topics in the information and cultural heritage community.
