The Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), established in 1957, is a division of the American Library Association. The mission of YALSA is to advocate, promote and strengthen service to young adults as part of the continuum of total library service, and to support those who provide service to this population. YALSA administers the Michael L. Printz Award for excellence in young adult literature, the Margaret Edwards Award for significant and lasting contribution to young adult literature and the Alex Awards for the ten best adult books with teen appeal. YALSA also sponsors Teen Read Week, the third week of each October, and Teen Tech Week, the second week of each March.
