Description
A guide to children's, teen, and adult book awards, including titles written or published in a variety of formats, genres, languages, and locations, as well as information for readers, librarians, and teachers looking for titles that have won awards.
Its having been chosen for an honor is an authoritative, respected reason for adding a book to a library collection. While the Newbery and Carnegie awards enjoy name recognition, there are many other awards that fulfill a wide variety of needs for publishers, booksellers, librarians, and readers looking for fast and easy access to titles that have been awarded in a specific subject area, format, or genre. Award-winning authors, artists, and illustrators are granted greater respect not only for their winning title, but for their body of work, making awards a beneficial source for locating material that has been evaluated and chosen based on established criteria.
This valuable reference book, organized alphabetically, provides an explanation of each award, including the criteria upon which titles are chosen and current winners. Age, country, and keyword labels in each entry provide helpful aids for readers who want to find recognized authors and titles as well as books from different nations, genres, and formats for displays, readers' advisory, and collection development. A finding guide at the end groups awards into categories.
Not just a comprehensive list of book awards, Awarding Reading highlights information about the quality of awarded books that will support librarians and educators facing intellectual freedom concerns. Understanding that awards are chosen by knowledgeable professionals, whether librarians, educators, authors, or artists, is becoming more important as artificial intelligence becomes more prevalent.
