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, and a chair of National Library Week regularly attended the annual conference of the American Library Association to present the award.
