Wyoming school and youth services librarians, there is still time to participate in the Wyoming Book Awards by collecting and submitting votes for this year’s awards and nominating books for next year’s awards!
The Wyoming Library Association and the Wyoming State Literacy Association jointly sponsor three awards: the Buckaroo Book Award for children in grades K-3, the Indian Paintbrush Book Award for children in grades 4-6, and the Soaring Eagle Book Award for youth in grades 7-12. The purpose of these awards is to provide an opportunity for the youth of Wyoming to read and select favorite books and to honor the authors of those books.
