    The Library of Congress Literacy Awards Program is excited to introduce two new prize categories this year. 

    Thanks to the generosity of the Kislak Family Foundation, the Literacy Awards Program will award up to an additional $200,000 in the form of two new prize categories and by doubling the impact of the Successful Practices Honoree category, for a total of up to $525,000 in cash prizes. The new Kislak Family Foundation Prize ($100,000) will be awarded to an organization based either inside or outside of the United States with an outsized impact on literacy relative to its size and/or years of operation. Additionally, the new Emerging Strategies Honorees prize category will award $5,000 for up to five organizations that are in their early stages of development (operating for 5 or less years). 

    Learn more about the new prize categories on today's Teaching with the Library blog post.

    The Literacy Awards Program is accepting applications now through February 19, 2024. Visit the Literacy Awards website for more information about the application process and to download the application forms.

    Register for the January 16th Applicant Information Session where potential applicants can learn about the new prize categories and application process, as well as ask questions to members of the Advisory Board and Literacy Awards staff.
