The '''Carnegie Medal for Writing''', established in 1936 as the '''Carnegie Medal''', is an annual British [[literary award]] for English-language [[children's literature|books for children or young adults]]. It is conferred upon the author by the [[Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals]] (CILIP), who in 2016 called it "the UK's oldest and most prestigious book award for children's writing".<ref name=about2>{{cite web|url=https://carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/about-the-awards.php|title=About the Awards|publisher=The CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160318171456/https://carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/about-the-awards.php|archive-date=18 March 2016}}</ref>

Nominated books must be written in English and first published in the UK during the preceding school year (September to August).<ref name="rules" /> Until 1969, the award was limited to books by British authors first published in England.<ref name="cullinan">{{cite book|last1=Cullinan|first1=Bernice E.|first2=Diane|last2=Goetz Person|date=2005|title=The Continuum Encyclopedia of Children's Literature |publisher=Continuum International Publishing Group|page=149}}</ref> The first non-British medalist was Australian author [[Ivan Southall]] for ''[[Josh (novel)|Josh]]'' (1972). The original rules also prohibited winning authors from future consideration.<ref name="cullinan" /> The first author to win a second Carnegie Medal was [[Peter Dickinson]] in 1981, who won consecutively for ''[[Tulku (novel)|Tulku]]'' and ''[[City of Gold (book)|City of Gold]]''. As of 2024, eight authors had received the Medal more than once.<!-- source is inspection of our list sorted by author -->

The winner is awarded a gold medal and £500 worth of books donated to the winner's chosen library. In addition, since 2016 the winner has received a £5,000 cash prize from the Colin Mears bequest.<ref name="about">{{cite web |title=The CILIP Carnegie Medal |url=https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/carnegie.php |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160318171524/https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/carnegie.php |archive-date=18 March 2016 |publisher=The CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards}}</ref><ref name=mears>{{cite web|url=https://archive.cilip.org.uk/news/colin-mears-bequest-consultation|title=Colin Mears bequest consultation|author=<!--Not stated-->|date=17 April 2015|publisher=[[Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals]]|access-date=15 March 2019}}{{Dead link|date=May 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

== History ==
The Medal is named after the Scottish-born American [[philanthropist]] [[Andrew Carnegie]] (1835–1919), who founded more than 2,800 libraries in the English-speaking world, including at least one in more than half of British library authorities.<ref name="about" /> It was established in 1936 by the British [[CILIP#History|Library Association]], to celebrate the centenary of Carnegie's birth,<ref name="about" /><ref name="CCSU" /> and inaugurated in 1937 with the award to [[Arthur Ransome]] for ''[[Pigeon Post]]'' (1936) and the identification of two "commended" books.<ref name="CCSU" /> This first Medal was dated 1936, but since 2007 the award has been dated by its year of presentation, not year of publication.<ref name="winners" />

In 1955, the [[Kate Greenaway Medal]], for "distinguished illustration in a book for children", was established as a companion to the Carnegie Medal.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/greenaway.php|title=The CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal|author=<!--Not stated-->|date=<!--Not stated-->|publisher=The CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards|access-date=14 March 2019|archive-date=7 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190707134945/https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/greenaway.php|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Both awards were established and administered by the Library Association, which was succeeded by the [[Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals]] (CILIP) in 2002.<ref name="CCSU" /> In 2022, the two awards were renamed to the Carnegie Medal for Writing and the Carnegie Medal for Illustration.<ref>{{Cite web |title=CILIP Partners with Yoto to Unlock New Future for Carnegie Greenaway Awards |url=https://yotocarnegies.co.uk/cilip-partners-with-yoto-to-unlock-new-future-for-carnegie-greenaway-awards/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230507124113/https://yotocarnegies.co.uk/cilip-partners-with-yoto-to-unlock-new-future-for-carnegie-greenaway-awards/ |archive-date=7 May 2023 |access-date=5 June 2023 |website=Yoto Carnegies}}</ref>

From 2022 to 2024, the award was sponsored by the audio technology company Yoto and was called the Yoto Carnegie Medal for Writing.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Yoto to sponsor Carnegie and Greenaway Book Awards |url=https://www.thebookseller.com/news/yoto-to-sponsor-carnegie-and-greenaway-book-awards |access-date=2024-11-17 |website=The Bookseller |language=En}}</ref> As of 2025 the awards are sponsored by [[Scholastic Corporation|Scholastic]] and the [[Authors' Licensing and Collecting Society]] (ALCS).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Partners and Sponsors |url=https://yotocarnegies.co.uk/about-the-awards/partners-and-sponsors/ |access-date=2024-11-17 |website=The Carnegies |language=}}</ref>

== Process ==

CILIP members may nominate books each September and October, with the full list of valid nominations published in November.<ref name=CGprocess>{{cite web|url=https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/awards-process.php|title=Awards Process|author=<!--Not stated-->|date=<!--Not stated-->|publisher=The CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards|access-date=14 March 2019|archive-date=4 January 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200104024529/https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/awards-process.php|url-status=dead}}</ref> The longlist, chosen by the judges from the nominated books, is published in February. The judging panel comprises 12 children's librarians, all of whom are members of CILIP's Youth Libraries Group (YLG). The shortlist is announced in March and the winner in June.<ref name=CGprocess/>

Titles must be English-language works first published in the UK during the preceding year (1 September to 31 August). According to CILIP, "all categories of books, including poetry, non-fiction and graphic novels, in print or ebook format, for children and young people are eligible".<ref name=rules>{{cite web|url=https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/awards-process.php#criteria|title=Criteria: Carnegie Medal|author=<!--Not stated-->|date=<!--Not stated-->|publisher=The CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards|access-date=14 March 2019|archive-date=4 January 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200104024529/https://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/awards-process.php#criteria|url-status=dead}}</ref> Multiple-author anthologies are excluded; however, co-authored single works are eligible.<ref name=rules/>

Young people from across the UK take part in shadowing groups organised by [[secondary school]]s and [[public library|public libraries]], to read and discuss the shortlisted books.<ref name=CGprocess/>

CILIP instructs the judging panel to consider plot, characterisation, and style.<ref name=rules/> Furthermore, it states that "the book that wins the Carnegie Medal should be a book of outstanding literary quality. The whole work should provide pleasure, not merely from the surface enjoyment of a good read, but also the deeper subconscious satisfaction of having gone through a vicarious, but at the time of reading, a real experience that is retained afterwards."<ref name=rules/>

A diversity review in 2018 led to changes in the nomination and judging process to promote better representation of ethnic minority authors and books.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/books/2018/sep/27/carnegie-medal-promises-immediate-action-over-lack-of-diversity|first=Alison|last=Flood|title=Carnegie medal promises immediate action over lack of diversity|website=[[The Guardian]]|date=27 September 2018|access-date=27 August 2020|archive-date=26 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200926221429/https://www.theguardian.com/books/2018/sep/27/carnegie-medal-promises-immediate-action-over-lack-of-diversity|url-status=live}}</ref>

==Carnegie of Carnegies==

To commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Carnegie Medal in 2007, CILIP created a 'Living Archive' on the Carnegie Medal website with information about each of the winning books and conducted a poll to identify the nation's favourite Carnegie Medal winner, to be named the "Carnegie of Carnegies". The winner, announced on 21 June 2007 at the [[British Library]], was ''[[Northern Lights (Pullman novel)|Northern Lights]]'' by [[Philip Pullman]] (1995). It was the expected winner, garnering 40% of the votes in the UK, and 36% worldwide.<ref name=eccleshare>{{cite news|url=http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6454463.html|url-status=dead|title=Rosoff, Grey Win Carnegie, Greenaway Medals in U.K.|last=Eccleshare|first=Julia|author-link=Julia Eccleshare|newspaper=[[Publishers Weekly]]|date=21 June 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081007185734/http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6454463.html|archive-date=7 October 2008|access-date=15 March 2019}}</ref>

''Northern Lights'', with 40% of the public vote, was followed by 16% for ''Tom's Midnight Garden'' by Philippa Pearce and 8% for ''Skellig'' by David Almond. As those three books had won the 70-year-old Medal in its year 60, year 23, and year 63, some commentary observed that ''Tom's Midnight Garden'' had passed a test of time that the others had not yet faced.<ref name=cofc>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/jun/22/books.booksnews|title=Pullman children's book voted best in 70 years|last=Ezard|first=John|newspaper=[[The Guardian]]|date=22 June 2007|access-date=15 March 2019|archive-date=29 June 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180629155055/https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/jun/22/books.booksnews|url-status=live}}</ref>

== Honorees ==
Before 2007, the selection process for the award was structured such that the year in which the award was given aligned with the year of publication for the books being considered. The books would be nominated and chosen during the year following their release, with the winners being announced and the medals presented in the early months of the subsequent year.<ref name=Archives>{{Cite web |date= |title=Carnegie Winner Archives |url=http://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/archive-full-list.php |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181017234144/http://www.carnegiegreenaway.org.uk/archive-full-list.php |archive-date=2018-10-17 |access-date=2023-06-04 |website=The CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Awards}}</ref>
