[OYAN] Judges Sought for Once Upon A World Book Award

[Jennifer Maurer]

If you are interested in being a judge to determine the winners of the 2014 One Upon a World Children's Book Award, applications are due Friday, March 21st. Teachers, authors, librarians, and those associated with children's services qualify to be judges. This is the award mission:

To support and perpetuate the values and mandate of the Simon Wiesenthal Center/Museum of Tolerance by honoring children's books aimed at young readers (ages 6 - 8) and older readers ("tweens" ages 9-12) which deal with issues of tolerance, diversity, and social justice, thus inspiring readers to promote positive change in the world.

I learned about this from information Gesse Stark-Smith posted to Libs-Or.
