This year, PJ Library is thrilled to announce our Golden Ticket Awards! Thanks to Harold's generosity, we have created these awards to honor communities who have achieved subscription growth in new and creative ways. All communities are eligible to win these $1,000 awards. 

This year, we are acknowledging outstanding work in five award categories: Best Digital Advertising, Most Supportive Jewish Partner, Most Innovative in Secular Spaces, Engaging Newborn Families, and Highest Percentage Growth Overall. These categories highlight the many ways our professionals bring PJ Library to life and strengthen communities.

Program Professionals can apply for up to three award categories. 

The fifth category, Highest Percentage Growth Overall, will not require applications and will instead be calculated based on measurable data, including subscription increase overall and percentage increase.

To apply, follow the links below. Additional instructions for applying are on the submission form itself. 

The deadline to apply is April 17th.
