Beginning in 2005, the Friends of Kansas Libraries (FoKL) established the Duane Johnson Library Leadership Award in honor of Duane Johnson, the retired State Librarian of Kansas who was in that position for over 20 years. Johnson’s dedication to the Kansas library community and his assistance with the development of the FoKL organization were highlights of his tenure as Kansas State Librarian. The recipient of this award receives a perpetual plaque to hang in their office for the year and $100 is given in their honor to the Kansas Library Foundation. Previous recipients are Hans Fischer, architect from Lawrence, Leroy Gattin, former director of the Hutchinson Public Library, Vikki Jo Stewart, former Special Projects Librarian at the State Library of Kansas, Pat Gaunce, former Kansas City (KS) Public Library branch manager, and Jane Hatch, also from the Kansas City (KS) Public Library.
