Congrats to all the #ALAYMAs winners & of course to the committee members who put in all those long hours of reading and thinking and discussing. My library hold list groweth as always!
Making a big transition this year during the #ALAYMAs -- putting the novels on the "for later" library list and picture books and graphic novels on the "hold" list. Will update if this helps with the onslaught! :)
Never thought my number one prayer when watching #ALAYMAs would be "Please let me know even one of the recipients" but please know if you are honored, I am ridiculously proud of you no matter what!
