 The Jane Gueski Award is presented to honor an organization that exemplifies exceptional contributions to literacy, books, readings, libraries, or literature in Nebraska. The annual Jane Gueski Award commemorates Gueski's passion for books and was established in the recognition of her contributions to the well-being of the libraries of Nebraska. Jane Pope Gueski was a founding member of the Nebraska Center for the Book, former director of the Nebraska Library Commission and a longtime leader in Nebraska Library and Literary Activities. This year's recipient is the UNL Center for Digital Research in the Humanities. The Center was nominated based on two primary ways in which they promote Nebraska authors. The staff of the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities helped create the Nebraska authors database, a project of Lincoln City Libraries through the Jane Pope Gueski Heritage Room of Nebraska authors. This project made available to the world a good deal of Nebraska author information that had been collected by Heritage Room staff over years, but was only available through one personal computer kept in the Heritage Room. After tremendous efforts in July 2020, over 3,000 unique users logged into Nebraska authors from around the world, bringing attention to the Heritage Room, which is a unique public library service promoting and informing people about Nebraska authors. The other reason is because of their other projects which provide online information regarding Nebraska authors. These include Across the Spectrum, the Interdisciplinary Life and Letters of John G. Neyhart, Elia Petey, An Uncommon Writer, An Uncommon Woman, Lauren Isley's Nebraska Poetry from the Plains, A Nebraska Perspective, and the Willough Cather Archive. The CDRH deserves the Jane Gueski Award in recognition of their exceptional reputation for scholarly research and their active role in creating worthwhile projects. Hi, I'm Catherine Welter, professor and co-director of the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. And we are receiving today the Gueski Award, which is very exciting for me personally, even though this is an award for my whole center. It's exciting for me because I knew Jane Gueski and Norman Gueski very well. Anyway, the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities has existed since 2005, and it has produced probably 60 or 70 different digital projects of some sort. And we have over 2 million visitors every year, and one of the projects that we worked on was with Lincoln City Libraries, and it's called Nebraska Authors. But we have many other literary projects as well. So anyway, this is a very exciting day for us, and I want to thank the nominator for this event, who was Pat Leach, for the work that we did together. So thank you so much.
