The Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP) organises the CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway (CKG) Children’s Book Awards. CILIP also manages the accompanying CKG Shadowing Scheme and its associated website, which librarians and other group leaders and group members can use to support reading and foster young people’s enjoyment of reading. In order to explore the potential of this scheme, build on previous evaluations and make recommendations regarding development, two studies were commissioned in 2011 and 2012, funded by Carnegie UK Trust. The 2012 study built substantially on the research carried out in 2011 and is therefore better regarded as the second phase of a continuing project. The combined results of both phases are presented in this report
