ABA organizers create the long list “with the help of the publishers and nominations from participating school librarians,” and student votes determine the shortlists and the winners. Shortlist voting is open until January 30, 2018. The shortlist will be announced February 1, 2018, and the winning titles will be celebrated at an awards presentation night in June.
