“After Foreword‘s editorial team completes the gargantuan task of narrowing down entrants to the top ten-plus titles, we pass our finalist selections on to those whose opinions mean so much to us and readers, librarians, and booksellers,” says Editor-in-Chief Michelle Schingler. “These industry frontliners then do the careful work of telling us which three titles stand out the most. We’re always delighted to learn their final choices and to celebrate the ultimate winners alongside their authors and publishers.”

With over 2,400 entries submitted across 55 categories, this year’s competition showcased the remarkable talent and diversity of the independent publishing industry. Foreword’s dedicated editors carefully selected approximately 12 finalists per genre, which were then presented to individual librarians and booksellers entrusted with the challenging task of determining the Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Honorable Mention winners.
