It is awarded in recognition of achievement for outstanding contributions toward promoting equality in the library profession, either by a sustained contribution or a single outstanding accomplishment. The award may be given for an activist or scholarly contribution in such areas as pay equity, affirmative action, legislative work and non-sexist education.[1] The inaugural award was bestowed on Margaret Myers, Director, Office of Library Personnel Resources of the American Library Association in 1984.[2]

The Joseph W. Lippincott Award was established in 1938 by the American Library Association. [1]
It is presented annually to a librarian for distinguished service to the profession of librarianship, such service to include outstanding participation in the activities of the professional library association, notable published professional writing, or other significant activity on behalf of the profession and its aims.
It is named for its founder, the publisher Joseph Wharton Lippincott of J. B. Lippincott & Co. His son, Joseph Wharton Lippincott Jr., also a publisher, regularly attended the annual conference of the American Library Association to present the award.
