National School Library Media Program of the Year (NSLMPY) Award

The NSLMPY Award honors school library media programs enabling students and staff to be effective users of ideas and information. The Award recognizes exemplary school library media programs that are fully integrated into the school's curriculum.

The NSLPY Award, guided by AASL's Empowering Learners: Guidelines for School Library Programs, recognizes school library programs that meet the needs of the changing school and library environment.

These programs empower learners to be critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, skillful researchers and ethical users of information. 

Each winning program (there will be 3) will receive a $10,000 prize donated by Follett Library Resources.
