Research Guides: 2015 Award-winning Children's Books: Home

Children's Literature

Phillips Library works with faculty in the Education Department to collect the award-winning titles in the field of Children's Literature. You can find these titles by typing the award name such as "Caldecott" on any field line in a search. You can also limit the date by year. If we do not currently own the book, or journal in the case of a review, you can order it through Interlibrary Loan.

For more information contact a librarian as listed below.

Discovery : the portal to find it all

Use the search boxes to find a book by title, author or award. Always put phrases or concept inside quotation marks, e.g. "Coretta Scott King Award".

Finding Book Reviews

The Phillips Library provides several databases that review current and past books. These databases are all listed on the Begin Your Discovery Page of the Library's Website.
