Dear CT Librarians,

I am sharing this information regarding the Nutmeg Book Award from the Nutmeg Secretary, Alessandra Casiello:

Hello,

Since I have been asked several times already, I wanted to send a few reminders about Nutmeg Book Awards:

  • 2024 Nominee voting paper ballots, google forms and the library submission form will be sent out on March 15th through our Newsletter.
  • Google forms need to be copied for you to collect your own school/library votes.
  • All voting should take place between April 1-April 30. Library submissions need to be in by May 2- please only submit using the library submission form.
  • 2024 Winners will be revealed in our May 15th Newsletter and on the Nutmeg Book Award website.
  • 2025 Nominee announcement, along with promo material links will also come out in the March 15th Newsletter. This is a "soft" announcement as we don't want to take away from the 2024 nominee voting in April. However, it is no longer a secret and you can share them at any time. The Nutmeg Book Award will not promote the 2025 titles until May 1.
The big thing to note is, if you are not already signed up for our newsletter, be sure to do so before March 15th if you want to receive any of this information. You can sign up here.  After March 15th, the only way to get this information is to go to our website to see past Newsletters here. 

Finally, in order to get the newsletter to your email, please make sure your email settings/filters are set up to allow mass mailings. We use mailchimp to send our newsletters, if your email settings/filters block unknown email addresses (it is sent from this email alplibrarian@gmail.com) or blocks mass mailings you won't see it.

If you have any questions, please email me.

Thanks,

Alessandra Casiello
Nutmeg Book Award, Secretary
