Weekly Voting

Each week, vote on which books you think are the best. Your vote will help decide which books advance to the next round! 

You can vote either online or on paper. If you’d like to vote online, you can vote at the links below. If you’d like to vote on paper, you can print out the weekly voting sheets at the links below or pick them up at the youth desk, and then please turn in your completed voting sheet(s) to the librarian at the youth desk. (You don’t need to have read the books to vote, but it’s even more fun if you do so!)
