All our 2022/2023 judges work and they have a wealth of knowledge to both share and inspire lovers of literature. Teachers and librarians will benefit from the judges rich experience.

  • Please note that 2024/2025 judges are appointed in a voluntary capacity.
  • With the majority working full time, 2024 bookings for judges talks are preferred after school hours.
  • Your request will be forwarded to our judges for consideration.
  • If no one is available we hope to be able to offer a number of experienced presenters to inspire your colleagues (i.e. past CBCA Book of the Year judges) in their place.
