BE PART OF HISTORY!


BECOME A CARNEGIE AND KATE GREENAWAY JUDGE


Are you passionate about children’s books and reading? Have you considered becoming a judge for the country’s oldest children’s book awards? Many past judges describe the experience as being the highlight of their careers.


The following YLG Regions are seeking to appoint a judge to represent their branch on the CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards judging panel (2022 and 2023: East Midlands, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales).


CILIP is committed to championing diversity, inclusion and representation within the awards. We particularly welcome applications from BAME, disabled, LGBTQ and male candidates, who have historically been under-represented on the judging panel. Applications open from 1 to 31 July 2020.


Great opportunities for CPD include:


l Networking with authors, illustrators, publishers and library professionals


l Training and support to assess outstanding writing and illustration


l Free books delivered to your door.


Experience of working with children and children’s books is key – as is the capacity to participate fully in judging and the wider award processes.


Candidates should hold current CILIP membership and be prepared to join CILIP’s Youth Libraries Group (YLG) if not already a member. However, as part of our ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusion, CILIP has opened applications to the Awards Judging Panel to non-CILIP member library workers from BAME backgrounds. Non-members will be given YLG membership for their two-year tenure on the judging panel.
