Sharon Lamont Student Award

Two awards, valued at $1,000 each, will be awarded annually to full-time undergraduate or graduate students enrolled in any program who are employed by the University of Waterloo Library currently or were so in the previous two academic terms. Employment includes full or part-time casual staff, co-op and work study positions, internships, and volunteer roles. Selection is based on extracurricular involvement in volunteer activities in the area of equity, diversity, and inclusion. This fund is made possible by a donation from Sharon and Stuart Lamont to support students working at the University of Waterloo Library. Interested students must submit an application by February 15, and Student Awards & Financial Aid will identify candidates and select recipients each Winter term. The award is open to both Canadian/permanent residents and international students with study permits.
