Library - The CILIP Carnegie Award

What is the CILIP Carnegie Award?
The CILIP Carnegie Medal is awarded by children's librarians for an outstanding book for children and young people. Awarded annually by CILIP: the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals.

During the Spring and Summer terms Mrs Baron runs a lively and stimulating Carnegie Award Shadowing Scheme: pupils interested in participating may obtain details in the library.

Below you will find a list of the nominations short list for the current and previous years which, based on their popularity among their teen and young adult patrons, school and public librarians have found to be "the best of the best".
