Participation in the Nutmeg Book Award voting is free, and there is no need to pre-register.
Students
in grades 4-6 and 7-8 vote by official NBA ballot in January for their
favorite title at either their school or public library. Each
institution may set up the voting as they see fit. Some schools vote
at town hall, some libraries have a ballot box, and many places have
parties, special events, or other Nutmeg celebrations during January.
Each student may vote only once. Public and school librarians submit
their institution's ballots on the Nutmeg website during the month of
January.
Ballot and Tally forms are also available for download as
PDFs by clicking on the Participation Link during December and
January.
