The New Jersey Library Association recognizes many awards for excellence. Each year we select best books, excellence in libraries including the Librarian of the Year designation, Public Relations and Journalism honorees as well as awards to students pursuing library studies.

The annual Garden State Book Awards honors children's titles in the following categories: Easy to Read, Easy to Read Series, Children's Fiction and Children's Nonfiction. The annual Teen Awards are given in the following categories: Fiction (Grades 6-8), Fiction (Grades 9-12) and Nonfiction.

To honor libraries NJLA chooses a Librarian of the Year as well as other distinguishing titles. Knowing theat excellence in our field goes beyond library walls, NJLA also grants the Public Relations Award to mark excellence in library promotions and the Journalism Award to recognize coverage of important library events in the print media.

Scholarships are offered for study leading to a graduate or postgraduate degree in librarianship. Awards are made on an evaluation of credentials and personal interviews with candidates. All awards are to be used for a graduate library education program that allows the graduate eligibility for a New Jersey Professional Librarian Certificate. Previous applicants and recipients are eligible to apply.
