The Lillian Marrero Scholarship Award of the REFORMA Northeast Chapter was established to encourage library science students who are committed to serving the Latino community by providing financial assistance to them and to help recruit and nurture more diverse and multilingual library staffs. The scholarship is named in honor of the late Lillian Marrero, a librarian of the Free Library of Philadelphia, for her excellent service to underprivileged communities, as well as for her outstanding commitment to representing, recruiting for, and promoting the REFORMA Northeast Chapter and its missions.
