WOMEN’S WAY Book Prize Committee
The Book Prize Committee is responsible for selecting the winner of the 15th Annual WOMEN’S WAY Book Prize.
Committee Details and Responsibilities:
- Books will be assigned via email Monday, May 8th. Everyone will be given a partner or small group to connect with to discuss whether they recommend the book to be one of the two finalists.
- The Book Prize Committee will meet virtually on Wednesday, June 14th at 5:30 PM to discuss the books and pick the two finalists. Attendance is required for this meeting.
- Everyone will be responsible for reading the two finalists, filling out a form supporting their choice for the winner, and coming to a final virtual meeting to vote for their selection.
If you would like to be considered for the WOMEN’S WAY Book Prize Committee, please fill out this form by Friday, May 5th. If we receive more interest than availability, we will use a lottery system to determine who receives a space on the Committee. Please note that prior involvement does not guarantee future participation.
