The William S. O'Farrell Award is to recognize significant contributions to AMIA and to the field. Nominees for the Award must have made a significant contribution to AMIA, either in the form of notable achievement or special projects, or through the noteworthy performance of volunteer work carried out over a long period of time.

The Award is named for Bill O’Farrell and honors all that Bill did for the Association, the mentoring role he has played over the years to so many archivists, and his contribution to the field.
