LIBRARIAN Act of 2007

Posted by Valerie on April 19, 2007

On Monday, the Librarian Incentive to Boost Recruitment and Retention in Areas of Need (LIBRARIAN) Act of 2007 was introduced in both the Senate and the House.  The bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to provide for Perkins student loan forgiveness, which will encourage individuals to become and remain librarians in low-income schools and public libraries.

The bills are S. 1121 and H.R. 1877.
