The text describes the Sequoyah Book Award, a set of three annual awards for books selected by vote of Oklahoma students in elementary, middle, and high schools, sponsored by the Oklahoma Library Association. The awards are named after Sequoyah, the Cherokee man who developed the Cherokee syllabary, and include the Sequoyah Children's Book Award (grades 3-5, inaugurated 1959), the Sequoyah Intermediate Book Award (grades 6-8, dating from 1988), and the Sequoyah High School Book Award (added in 2010). This matches the "Oklahoma Sequoyah Award" as it is the same program described.
