Hi Kasey,
This is a wonderful idea. I have one question. I presume that this has to
be a living author?
Please let me know.
Best wishes to all,
Helen Boelens

Hello IASL,
I am very excited to announce that IASL has been selected as a nominating body for the 2018 Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award! This is a great honour for us as we are one of just three international organisations selected to nominate. The Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award<http://www.alma.se/en/> is the world's largest children's literature award and honours the life time achievements of authors, illustrators and storytellers as well as organisations or individuals who have completed long-term, sustainable work to promoting reading. The website also notes the award's "focus on respect for democratic values and human rights" citing the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child as a foundation for their work. Past laureates <http://www.alma.se/en/award-winners/> include Maurice Sendak from the US, Shaun Tan from Australia, Banco del Libro in Venezuela, and the Tamer Institute in Palestine.
We are allowed four nominations and would try to choose one in each of the four areas: author, illustrator, storyteller, and reading promoter (organisation or individual.) After consulting with Jill Hancock and IASL President Katy Manck, we decided the best way to collect ideas from IASL would be via a Google form followed by an open discussion of the nominees. Please go to this Google Form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYTb3JQ3xy4-1P7w440oy_qtK9S6Dz7m86eebbEGuwYYmTww/viewform> and fill out the information regarding your nominated author, illustrator, storyteller, and/or reading promoting organisation or individual. For each of our nominees, we must include a variety of information available on the Google form and at this link<http://www.alma.se/Documents/2016/Januari-mars/Nomineringsprocess/Nomination%20form%202017.pdf>.
Please contribute your candidate by 15 April so we have time for the open discussion from everyone before the final nominations are due from us to the Award committee in mid May.
Thank you and looking forward to see who we come up with! (:
Cheers,
Kasey

Subject: [IASL] Re: Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award Nominations
Could I ask a couple of questions?
1) Can one only nominate one person (for the purposes of discussion I
realize that finally IASL would be making a final nomination)
2) Does the Google form require an exclusive choice of category? (I have in
mind to nominate an author/illustrator)
