The Flume: NH Teen Reader's Choice Award

The Flume: NH Teen Reader's Choice Award was created in 2005 in response to a New Hampshire teen's request to have a book award geared towards high school students. Each year teens nominate titles, published within the last two years, they think deserve to be recognized. Librarians narrow the group of titles to a list of 13 and teens then vote for the winning title from the list of 13. Click here for a list of 2010 nominees and start reading today!

 

Isinglass Teen Read Award

The Isinglass Teen Read book award was begun in Barrington, NH in 2001 as collaboration between the public library and the middle school library. In 2005 the award became a state-wide reading experience. Each year 7th and 8th grade students are asked for suggestions of books they feel are great. The ITR committee members read the suggested books and select the top twenty books which then form next years list. Each April students in grades 7 and 8 vote for their favorite book from the current years list. The winner is announced in May. Contact your school librarian to vote.
