The Biomedical and Life Sciences Division presented its 2003 Distinguished Member Award to Larry L. Wright, head of reference services at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences Library, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The award honors his contributions to the profession of special librarianship; his leadership in the division, the North Carolina chapter, and the association; and his excellence as a mentor.

A member of SLA since 1984, Wright was the first recipient of the Rose L. Vormelker Award in 1998. He has served on the executive boards of both the Biomedical and Life Sciences Division and the North Carolina chapter and chaired numerous committees, including the SLA Student and Academic Relations Committee. He is a member of the Medical Section of the Biomedical and Life Sciences Division, the Environment and Resource Management Division, and the Gay and Lesbian Issues Caucus.
