Celebrating Great Books of the PNW Since 1965 the PNBA has presented annual awards to recognize excellence in writing from the Pacific Northwest. Rather than soliciting nominations for specific categories, we simply require that the author and/or illustrator reside within the PNBA region (Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Montana, Idaho and British Columbia) and that the book be published within the current calendar year. In addition, nominations may be submitted for special awards honoring efforts in publishing, illustration, or for a body of work. Special awards are determined at the discretion of PNBA's Book Awards Committee. The Awards Committee is made up of independent booksellers representing the PNBA region. A new committee is formed each March and the winning books are picked by the committee in mid-October. (If the nominated book will not be published until after the deadline, galleys/reading copies should be sent to the committee.) DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS AUGUST 31st. Publishers or publicists wishing to nominate a title should fill out the nomination form and send it to the PNBA office. A list of current committee members will be supplied to you. You are then required to supply a copy of the nominated book to every committee member. You are also strongly encouraged to nominate and supply books as they are published to avoid a late onslaught and allow committee members ample time to give your title a fair and thorough review. Northwest booksellers are also encouraged to make nominations! Please complete the form and return it to the office. PNBA will notify the publisher.
