This podcast was recorded at the first meeting of DCPL's Mock Printz Award committee. In it, we discuss our nominees and let you know how our version of the Printz Awards will work.
A description of the actual Printz awards, from ALA.Org: "The Michael L. Printz Award annually honors the best book written for teens, based entirely on its literary merit, each year. In addition, the Printz Committee names up to four honor books, which also represent the best writing in young adult literature. The awards announcement is made at the ALA Midwinter Meeting as part of the Youth Media Awards and is celebrated with a program and reception each year at the ALA Annual Conference."
