This is a contribution from Paul Adalian, currently Dean of the Library at Southern Oregon University and previously Dean of the Library at CSU-Channel Islands and Head of Reference at Cal State, San Luis Obispo. I like this because it is both award and recognition and also a whole lot of fun!
"One of the things I do is give awards to library staff, teaching faculty, etc. One favorite and well received award and fun activity is the Legion of Honor. I go to a trophy shop and get a blank medal and they place the name of the person and Library Legion of Honor and of course it has the red, white, and blue ribbon. We play the music from the Olympics when people come up to receive. Everyone's going crazy. We line up all the recipients and then we play the Marseilles and I put the medal on each then give them the three kisses. People are going crazy."
