2018 Best Practices in Early Literacy Award – Apply Now!
The New Jersey State Library is accepting applications for the annual Best Practices in Early Literacy Award. The award honors up to four outstanding public libraries that currently provide exemplary literacy programs for children from
birth to six years, their families and caregivers. The award provides a $1,000 honorarium, a certificate, and promotion of the winning library as a model program for other libraries. The winning libraries will be honored during the State Librarian’s Breakfast
at the 2018 NJLA Conference at Harrah’s in Atlantic City.
To apply, please go to the
NJ State Library’s website to find the links to the application form and award guidelines on the page. The
deadline to apply is Monday, March 5, 2018. In 2017, the Best Practices in Early Literacy, Multicultural Program and Innovative Partnerships Awards were all included in one brochure called the New Jersey State Library Awards. Please visit the following
webpage and click on Award Brochures, then on New Jersey State Library Awards for more information about the 2017 winners or Best
Practices in Early Literacy for the previous years’ winners.
Those who applied last year but did not win can re-apply with the same program as long as it was held within the past two years. Libraries who have won twice previously are not eligible to apply. Please contact Sharon Rawlins, Youth Services
