Dromkeen Medal
The Dromkeen Medal is a literary prize awarded annually by the Courtney Oldmeadow Children's Literature Foundation for those who have advanced children's literature in Australia. The Medal was established by bookseller, Joyce Oldmeadow in 1982, and is named after the property, Dromkeen Homestead, near Riddell's Creek, Victoria, which the Oldmeadow family purchased in 1973, and established as a children's literature museum.
The State Library of Victoria has presented the Dromkeen Medal since 2013.
In 1994 an annual award was created to recognise someone working in an Australian library setting "in recognition of the important role they play in introducing young people to literature and encouraging an enjoyment and love of reading."
