VOTING PROCEDURES
Some library media specialists include titles from more than one level (primary, intermediate, middle, senior) in their school's voting, but each student is allowed only one vote.
Votes at the various levels (primary, intermediate, middle, senior) should be collected by the participating library media specialist or teacher and sent to the Golden Archer Committee via the online Voting Ballot. Any actual paper ballots you used or collected are not turned in to WEMTA. You may create and use any sort of ballot you would like.
The winners may be announced at the annual WEMTA Conference.
Ideas on how to have kids vote for titles:
Use your circulation system to determine the top circulated books and find the top books that have a copyright date of 5 years ago or less. Use that list to have your students vote from.
Use a ballot box.
Do a simple survey by the raising of hands.
Do a survey by posting the pictures of the books and having the students put stickers/tallies/etc., under their favorite.
Run a book tournament.
