Exciting vacancy for a Welsh judge to be part of Carnegie history in 2026-27. If you are passionate about children's literature, looking for a unique cpd opportunity and have a talent for extreme reading, this is the role for you! If you have questions, we are happy to help!

Applying to become Carnegie judge was the single best decision I have ever made for my career. I learned a lot, I laughed a lot, I met some astounding people and Not Judging But was born. Life-changing in so many ways, this is a wonderful opportunity - go for it!

#ToshsIsland is a beautifully inclusive story with life-changing potential. Thank you so much David Fickling Books, the world needs more books like this! Beautifully realised in full colour graphic format, Tosh's journey navigates chronic pain with nuance and empathy. Stunning ❤️👏🏻❤️

Jake's story shines a light on disordered eating, depression, bullying and the transformative magic of creativity. A challenging read for many reasons, and an important addition to any library that serves children and young people. #LouderThanHunger Walker YA John Schu

Some of the gorgeous books I've been reading for Spark! School Book Awards this week. Thrilled to be judging the 11+ category in some pretty exalted company - those discussions are going to be mind-blowing !#readingforpleasure #HalfTerm #schoollibrarian

Gorgeous book post alert! Thank you so much Otter-Barry Books - Matt Goodfellow is a firm favourite @kings_monkton and #TheFirstYear looks incredible! 😍😍😍 Reading for Pleasure at KMS Mrs T Tonge

Just a girl who loves books, casually sharing the news that I will be Chairing the 90th anniversary of the Carnegie Medals in 2027... Lots to say, but my inability to form sentences at this time speaks volumes. #mindblown YLG Committee YLG Wales Information Professional Jobs CILIP Cymru Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Happy day 1!

A school library without a librarian is just a room full of resources. Staffed libraries should be a right for all children and young people.

Can't get enough of this incredible book! Vital, immediate and honest, verse novels have such reach!

Absolutely stunning - you won't want to miss this one!

The judging team couldn't ask for a better Chair ❤️❤️❤️

The medals are in such safe hands! The awards are fortunate to be able to draw on such a wealth of passion and experience. 25/26 judges, you are in for a treat!

So excited to receive this gorgeous proof from the lovely folks Andersen Press There is always room in my TBR for Phil Earle titles and I can't wait to get stuck in. Thank you! #SchoolLibrarian #AmReading #ReadingforPleasure
