Winners
Award winners will be notified by mail and will receive certificates and cash prizes. The winners will also be recognized at a special awards ceremony.
While we typically use the category specified on your entry, we reserve the option of selecting an alternate genre if deemed appropriate.
The decisions of the judges and the Book Awards Program Coordinator are final. Books become the property of BAIPA and will not be returned.
