Multicultural Excellence Awards

The Multicultural Excellence Awards will be awarded annually. The award recognises a public library service that demonstrates excellence in the delivery of multicultural library services.

The 2025 award is generously sponsored by CAVAL.

Multicultural library services encompass a range of services provided to culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities, including Indigenous peoples, and acknowledge and celebrate Australia’s rich cultural diversity.

All award applicants must be a member of QPLA to be eligible for consideration.
