Book Ballots: Teen Read Month
We had 266 teens participate in Book Ballots this year (a 618% increase from 2014) by submitting either paper ballots (34 entries), voting online (7entries), or voting at their participating school (225 entries). Due to the partnership with the schools we were able to increase system wide participation by 618% this year! School votes accounted for 85% of the total votes and teen participation. Schools that elected to participate embraced the opportunity to participate and were very grateful for the books, particularly during times of no to little school library collection budgets.
