Announcing 2009 Independent Publisher Book Awards Results

The 2009 contest attracted 4,900 total entries -- 3,380 entries in the national categories and 710 entries in the regional competition. The 410 medal-winning books came from 44 U.S. states plus the District of Columbia; 8 Canadian provinces; and 6 countries overseas. The number of medals awarded per category varies according to the number of entrants submitted in each category.

"We saw spectacular work in so many categories -- so much creativity, so much passion -- so much truth. The main thing I’ve learned about independent authors and publishers over the years is that they tell the truth. We judged passionately truthful memoirs and biographies, soulfully truthful self-help books, and brutally honest critiques of our social and political systems. It is this dedication to truth and the art of literature that makes these awards worthwhile and inspires us to delve into the massive task of judging each year."
— Jim Barnes, Awards Director
