The U.S. Civilian Research & Development Foundation (CRDF) is a nonprofit organization authorized by the U.S. Congress and established in 1995 by the National Science Foundation. This unique public-private partnership promotes international scientific and technical collaboration, primarily between the United States and Eurasia, through grants, technical resources, and training. CRDF's mission is to: support exceptional research projects that offer scientists and engineers alternatives to emigration and strengthen the scientific and technological infrastructure of their home countries; advance the transition of foreign weapons scientists to civilian work by funding collaborative non-weapons research and development projects; help move applied research to the marketplace and bring economic benefits both to the United States and the countries with which CRDF works; and strengthen research and education in universities abroad.
More information on CRDF is available at www.crdf.org.
Background:
The 2011 Access to Learning Award
The Access to Learning Award recognizes the innovative efforts of public libraries and similar organizations outside the United States to connect people to information through free access to computers and the Internet.
The Access to Learning Award honors innovative organizations that are opening a world of online information to people in need. Applications are invited from libraries and similar organizations outside the United States that have created new ways to offer these key services:
• Free public access to computers and the Internet.
• Public training to assist users in accessing online information that can help improve their lives.
• Technology training for library staff.
• Outreach to underserved communities.
The award recipient will receive $1 million (U.S).

CRDF seeks a minimum of five experts with a background in Library Science and Information and Communications Technology to provide evaluation support to the Access to Learning Award program, which will include a comprehensive technical review of applications submitted. The experts will also serve on a panel to identify and recommend meritorious applications for the award. Specific tasks include:
I. Review of Applications: The individuals will work with CRDF staff to assist in the evaluation of 200-250 applications submitted to the ATLA program. Each individual will provide technical comments and assign a numerical score to his/her assigned pool of applications. It is anticipated that each reviewer will score between 100 and 125 applications. Depending on the number of applications actually received, CRDF may elect to engage additional experts and staff reviewers. All technical comments and numerical scores will be submitted via an online system.
II. ATLA Panel: Each individual will serve as one of at least five (5) panelists to discuss the overall merit/ranking of the applications submitted to the ATLA program. The meeting will be coordinated by CRDF and take place via teleconference, whereby panelists will discuss the merit of each application and finally compile a list of 20-30 meritorious applications.
