I just wanted to double-check. Are Audie awards okay?

A Christmas Carol is stated as having won the Audie Award for Classics in 2005.

Thanks.

Sure

Please explain what gave you concern in the task description so we can get better.

I just wanted to be sure it wasn't limited to a more formal literary award, that was all. I never quite know where the Audies stand in things, plus I wanted to check as the award and the book's publishing date are a long way apart.

Hi! Does the Booker Prize for Longlist 2022 count? Or would it had to of won the overall Booker Prize 2022?

I would like to use Case Study by Graeme Macrae Burnet, the award is listed in the GR book info but I wasn’t sure on if the longlist counted.

Thank you!

No, the longlist are nominees

I have a book that won an award, but it is not listed on GR's. If I can have a librarian add to GR's (which I am not sure is possible but will try) would that book be accepted? Thanks

Yes, you can have a librarian update the record
