I just got back from the AJL Midwinter Council Meeting in NY, where Barbara Bietz revealed the 2012 winners of the Sydney Taylor Book Award! The press release, full list of winners, and a podcast interview with Barbara can all be found at The Book of Life at www.bookoflifepodcast.com.<http://www.bookoflifepodcast.com./>
I would like to ask EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU reading this message to share the news about the award winners with your friends, colleagues, and any media contacts you may have! Please email the folks you work with, the local public library, the local Jewish newspaper, etc. Please share it on Facebook (you can find the original status updates and share them at www.facebook.com/bookoflifepodcast<http://www.facebook.com/bookoflifepodcast%29.> ) and retweet it on Twitter (see www.twitter.com/bookoflifepod<http://www.twitter.com/bookoflifepod> ). Post it to any relevant listserv's you belong to (besides AJL's listserv). The Sydney Taylor Book Award is the shiniest thing AJL does, the thing most of interest to the general public. Let's take advantage of that interest by spreading the news and wide and far as possible! Thanks, everyone! Heidi Estrin [email protected]
