Collaborative List of Awards/Contents

[Diego]

Hello Folks

I’ve been classifying some awards and contests to help my wife submit to relevant organizations. As a nerd, I created a script to get the website traffic to help evaluate the award.

Other friends were also struggling to decide which award to submit, so I decided to make it public and also a collaborative spreadsheet (it’s an Airtable, actually).

Here’s the link: https://airtable.com/applqtTkTsFok3aB...

Thank you for posting. It was interesting to look at.

I'm confused. Is this just for promotional purposes? Why aren't Newbery and Caldecott, etc., listed?

I get the unfortunate vibe that I should make note of these awards and actively dismiss results for most of them. Especially from the "submit an award" feature. Like, I could invent an award that says "Cheryl's Best Books of the Year."

I am glad that I am not the only one who is getting a weird and unfortunate vibe here.

I looked over the list, and I did not see any of the ALSC awards: Newbery, Caldecott, Coretta Scott King, Pura Belpre, Sibert, or Geisel.
Although the American Indian Youth Literature Award was listed, I didn't see the Sydney Taylor Award, the Schneider Family Award, or the Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature.
