Two book-related announcements today:

The big day is here! Your teens have been reading the 2010 Teens’ TopTen nominations since last April, and now they can tell us which books are their favorites. Voting for the 2010 Teens’ Top Ten is available -and this year, it’s even easier for your teens to vote. Just have them go to the Teens’ Top Ten homepage at www.ala.org/teenstopten! (If you still want to use a separate link,that’s available too at www.surveymonkey.com/s/teenstopten2010.)

Voting is open now through September 17. We’ll announce the winners at www.ala.org/teenstopten during Teen Read Week, Oct. 17-23.

Calling all Middle Grade Teachers and Librarians! Little, Brown Books for Young Readers is looking for galley groups to read and review our middle grade titles. Do you serve Middle Grade readers? Do your readers like to share what’s on their minds? Would they like to tell US what they think? Then send an email to LBYRGalleys@hbgusa.com and we’ll send you more information. You’ll be glad you did!
