YALSA Book Finder
Check out this go-to resource from the Young Adult Library Services Association. YALSA has a free Teen Book Finder Database to support collection development and literacy programming at the middle school and high school levels.
This database provides access to all of YALSA's annual selected book and media lists, awards, and honorees. It replaces individual award lists formerly on the YALSA site. Search 4,000+ books, audiobooks, and films and filter by author, list, genre, theme, and year. Plus, download, print, and share lists. Technology at work for you!

Bonus! Additional award books focusing on diversity have been recently added to the database. Those include books from Amelia Bloomer Book List, American Indian Library Association, Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association, Association of Jewish Libraries, Chinese American Librarians Association, Coretta Scott King Award, and Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Round Table.
