Young Hoosier Book Award Participation & Voting
Voting Eligibility
Students in Indiana are eligible to read and vote on Young Hoosier Books if they have access to at least 12 of the nominated titles.
Students may only vote in one eligible program, either their school or public library.
Eligibility Notes for Consideration For situations of differentiation, adults may allow students to read from a different list. Please be aware that reading from a list above the intended level may have content that is not recommended for younger students. Students may either read or listen to nominated titles to count toward voting requirements.
