Our Team has qualified to worlds, through alliance selections. We are keen on winning awards in vex worlds, especially the innovate award. However, we are not eligible to hand in our engineering notebook. Does this mean we cannot receive this award in our division?
There are a number of awards you can win at worlds without an engineering notebook. Take a look at the judges guide

If the description does not mention having an EN, then it is not required for the award.

I will say though that even if a notebook isn’t considered when giving a certain award, judges are often biased against teams without notebooks, so earning any judged award will be more difficult without a notebook, even if you’re not supposed to need one for that award.

At worlds, the judges have no idea if you’ve submitted a notebook or not. What you say may be true at local tournaments but is not necessarily true at worlds.

Do you think If i bring our teams notebook with us it will influence judging
Sure. Keep it in your pit and show the judges when they come for an interview. They won’t have time to look through the whole book, so if there is a section you want to highlight to them, have it ready.
