OR

 

You can have students vote online using Google Forms! 

Here is a copy of a Google Form you can copy and use in your library. 

Here's how:

            Log into Google

            Click on the Intermediate or Teen link below

            Go to your Google Drive. The Google Form spreadsheet for
voting should be listed as one of your files.

            Check the box next to the file

            New menu choices should now appear across the top of your
file list.

            Click on More, then choose the option to Make a copy

            You should now have 2 new files that says 'Copy of 2013 Teen
(or Intermediate) Nutmeg Voting'  and one that says 'Copy of 2013 Teen
(or Intermediate) Nutmeg Voting (Responses)'

            You are now the owners of these copied files and you can
rename, personalize for your library, and view the results.

quality literature and to choose their favorite from a list of ten
nominated titles. Jointly sponsored by the Connecticut Library
Association (CLA)  <http://www.ctlibraryassociation.org/> and the
Connecticut Association of School Librarians (CASL), the Nutmeg
Committee is comprised of children's librarians and school library media
specialists who are members of our sponsoring organizations.
