Apologies for just missing the first of the month announcement posting window. It took us a few days to verify the final nominations...
As of November 1, 2005, two hundred seventeen books have been nominated for Best Books for Young Adults. Books will be discussed at the ALA Midwinter Meeting in San Antonio in January.
Although nominations are closed for the year, nominations from the field are encouraged and will be accepted again next year for the 2007 list. Please visit the YALSA Best Books website for details, including the policies and procedures. http://www.ala.org/yalsa/booklists/bbya/.
If you or your teens would like to comment about any of the nominated titles, please send your comments to me and they will be shared with the BBYA committee.
Thanks!

Apologies for just missing the first of the month announcement posting window. It took us a few days to verify the final nominations...
As of November 1, 2005, two hundred seventeen books have been nominated for Best Books for Young Adults. Books will be discussed at the ALA Midwinter Meeting in San Antonio in January.
Although nominations are closed for the year, nominations from the field are encouraged and will be accepted again next year for the 2007 list. Please visit the YALSA Best Books website for details, including the policies and procedures. http://www.ala.org/yalsa/booklists/bbya/.
If you or your teens would like to comment about any of the nominated titles, please send your comments to me and they will be shared with the BBYA committee.
Thanks!
