For all you list-crazy folks, here are some more awards and finalists that I've heard about in the last couple of weeks. 

CILIP Carnegie Medal shortlist. This UK award is the equivalent of the Newbery. CILIP stands for Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals.

CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal shortlist. Similar to the Carnegie shortlist, above, this list includes some American books, too. The prize is similar to the Caldecott.

Ezra Jack Keats New Writer and New Illustrator Awards for Children's Books

Bankstreet College of Education Children's Book Committee: Children's Book Awards

Golden Kite and Sid Fleischman Award Winners and Honorees, presented by the Society for Children's Book Writers & Illustrators (SCBWI).

Blue Peter Book Awards (UK)

Bram Stoker Award finalists. These prizes, sponsored by the Horror Writers Association, include a YA category. News via Locus Online. (Hat tip: A Chair, A Fireplace and A Tea Cozy.)

Bologna Ragazzi Digital Prize for Non-fiction. News via Achockablog.
