Vote for Your Favorite Monarch, Bluestem & Caudill Award Books!
January 16 – March 1
We will be conducting voting for the Monarch, Bluestem, and Rebecca Caudill Awards. Pick up and fill out a paper ballot at the Youth Services Desk.
Grade levels and reading requirements
- Monarch: Children in grades K-2 who have read at least five books on the 2023 Monarch list are invited to vote.
