The YRCA books are chosen by the Pacific Northwest Library Association. Students in grade 4-6 read a minimum of two books and then they are able to vote on their favorite. Voting takes place in March and April. The books are on a permanent display in the BK and Holy Family Library Learning commons. Here is the list of nominees for this year plus a book trailer video from St. Albert Public library.
