Award for Distinguished Achievement

he SHARP Award for Distinguished Achievement has been presented on special occasions to recognize collaborative work, publications or research tools (electronic or paper) which have contributed materially to the field of book history. The award has recognized initiatives which have been developed sometimes with minimal institutional support, yet which have served the study of book history exceptionally well. Research tools considered for the award in the past have included web sites, publications, groups or societies, journals or networks which materially aided future work in the field. Past ADA winners are listed at right.

We hope to continue to recognize significant contributions to the field of book history in years to come through the President's Award, the first of which will be presented in 2013.
