Andrew Carnegie Medal Finalists Selected
The American Library Association and the Carnegie Corporation of New York today announced the finalists for the inaugural Andrew Carnegie Medal honouring excellence in fiction and nonfiction for adult readers. Althought the American Library Association has long sponsored awards for children's literature like the Caldecott and Newberry Medals, this is the first award that focuses on adult readers.
The winners will be selected by a panel of library professionals and announced on June 24 at the ALA's annual conference.
