The '''Alex Awards''' |
The '''Alex Awards''' annually recognize "ten books written for adults that have special appeal to young adults ages 12 through 18".<ref name=home/> Since 2002, the Alex Awards have been administered by the [[Young Adult Library Services Association]], a division of the [[American Library Association]].<ref name=toptens/> |
||
The awards, initially bestowed in 1998, were named after [[Baltimore]] librarian [[Margaret Alexander Edwards]], who was known as "Alex". They are sponsored by the Margaret Alexander Edwards Trust and ''[[Booklist]]'' magazine.<ref name=carter>{{cite journal|last=Carter |first=Betty |title=Who Is Margaret Edwards and What Is This Award Being Given In Her Honor? |journal=The ALAN Review |issue=Spring 1992 |pages=45–48 |url=http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/yalsa/booklistsawards/margaretaedwards/whowasedwards/whomargaretedwards.cfm |access-date=2009-03-05 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081226143526/http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/yalsa/booklistsawards/margaretaedwards/whowasedwards/whomargaretedwards.cfm |archive-date=December 26, 2008 }}</ref> Books published during the previous year are eligible for the awards. |
|||
The Alex Awards were first given annually beginning in [[1998]], and became an official ALA award in [[2002]]. |
|||
==Alex recipients== |
|||
The award is sponsored by the [[Margaret Alexander Edwards Trust]] and Booklist. Edwards was a young adult specialist for many years at the [[Enoch Pratt Library]] in [[Baltimore]]. Her work is described in her book [[Fair Garden and the Swarm of Beasts]], and over the years she has served as an inspiration to librarians who serve young adults. The Alex Awards are named after Edwards, who was called "Alex" by her friends. |

The Alex Awards annually recognize "ten books written for adults that have special appeal to young adults ages 12 through 18".[1] Since 2002, the Alex Awards have been administered by the Young Adult Library Services Association, a division of the American Library Association.[2]
The awards, initially bestowed in 1998, were named after Baltimore librarian Margaret Alexander Edwards, who was known as "Alex". They are sponsored by the Margaret Alexander Edwards Trust and Booklist magazine.[3] Books published during the previous year are eligible for the awards.
