Organisers of the International Information Industry Awards, held alongside the Online Information show in November, have announced that nominations are now open. And this year there's a new award category as well.
There is a toral of 18 categories on the awards roster, ranging from project and team awards (in academic, business, public sector and scientific environments) through to an individual Lifetime Achievement award.
The awards are presented by a well-known televisual celebrity (in previous years these have included Loyd Grossman, John Suchet and Trevor MacDonald), and have built up a reputation over the years as being an essential highlight of any information professional's calendar.
Product awards range from Best User Experience and Best Customer Service Team through to Best Specialist Search product. This year a new category is being added, Best Product for Libraries. Sponsors for the event include ICC, FreePint, CILIP and the American Psychological Association.
Two awards are also being presented during the show's associated Conference: the Jason Farradane Award will be announced on Tuesday 28 November and the Tony Kent Strix Award the following day. Both are sponsored by Sage Publications.
