The Junior Judges Project is back for 2009.

The CBCA has now announced the Book of the Year Awards Short List. These are the books you will be judging, just like the CBCA judging committee.

To participate in the JJP you will need to register your school or library then create an account in order to Log In. Last year's passwords will still work but you will need to create your Class Groups for this year.

This year, the Junior Judges Project is open to both schools and libraries.

Theme for 2009

What do you think of this year's artwork? It has been created especially for the CBCA and Junior Judges' Project by Matt Ottley, winner of the 2008 Picture Book of the Year award for his book, 'Requiem for a Beast'.

We're working hard to get everything together for the project so please check back soon for information on how to register.

There's a lot happening this year so keep track of events with the Junior Judges' calendar

If you have any comments or suggestions we'd love to hear from you.

Happy Reading

Project Coordinator
