Call them Cybil-ians, call them Cybil-ites--either way, we are proud to announce that some prominent upcoming ALA award committees (announced in May) include Cybils folks. Which awards, you ask? Well, on the 2012 Newbery Committee are Middle Grade Fiction Round II Judge Stacy Dillon of Welcome to My Tweendom, and Fantasy/Sci-Fi Round I Judge Eva Mitnick of Eva's Book Addiction. The Newbery! So cool.
Also, well-known Cybil-ite from the past Liz Burns (A Chair, A Fireplace and a Tea Cozy) is on the YA Nonfiction Award Committee.
Congratulations to all three!
Yay! Congratulations to all!

Thank you for the shout-out! I'm completely thrilled - and I'm looking forward to meeting and discussing books with Stacy (whose blog I have subscribed to for a while, so I feel like I already know her).
