Nominations were taken earlier in the year, voting is currently underway until April 22nd, with the winners announced on May 19th to coincide with national library and information week. There are many
ways to vote for your favourite library – text, phone, email, signature or online poll. Check the competition website or with your local librarian for further details. If your favourite hasn't been nominated this year, remember to nominate them for the 2015 awards.

So where is your favourite library? Is it your local library, your school library or maybe a library you have visited interstate?
Is your favourite library one which offers great children's services such as this one? The Corner, at the State Library of Queensland.
Libraries are so much more than a stereotypical place to borrow books. They are inspirational places, often with a sense of modernism and local charm which uniquely cater to the needs of their communities. Help recognise the fantastic services that libraries offer by casting your vote now. Best of luck to all libraries involved.
