Libraries Awards & Honors

University Libraries' awards recognize library faculty and staff members for significant contributions to the libraries who have excelled in service, professionalism, and academics.

The Agnes Milstead Distinguished Librarianship Award and the Outstanding Service Award are awarded on an annual basis in the Spring. Recipients may be nominated by peers from the library, university, or the community. Both awards come with a substantial cash award and recipients are honored at an annual spring banquet.

The University of Wyoming has earned its Research Level 1 (R1) status from the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, placing Wyoming's only four-year university among the top research universities in the United States.

The University of Wyoming Libraries has been a Federal Depository Library since 1907. The collection comprises approximately 1.5 million print and microfiche items in Coe Library and Library Annex, as well as maps, aerial and infrared photographs, and geological publications housed in the Brinkerhoff Geology Library. The Federal Document Library Program is changing from physical to digital distribution of government information; UW Libraries provides access to online publications available from the Federal Depository Library Program through the library catalog.
