Each year at the ASEE Annual Conference, the Engineering Libraries Division presents an award, consisting of a plaque, that recognizes work that contributes to the advancement and development of excellence in engineering libraries.
Homer I. Bernhardt was, from 1966 until his untimely death in 1982, head of the Bevier Engineering Library at the University of Pittsburgh. Homer Bernhardt's professional activities contributed to engineering and librarianship at Pitt and at ASEE. His commitment to the field is recognized in ELD's decision to name its Distinguished Service Award in his memory.
