The GSCBA committee announced the winners from the 2016 vote, and developed the ballot for the 2017 award. Votes are due at the beginning of January 2017. We were pleased to have Rita Williams-Garcia as the speaker for the Garden State Book Award luncheon in May at the NJLA conference. Members presented a program at NJASL which included lesson plans for using GSCBA nominated books.
