News: Sir Julius Vogel Awards 2009

The Sir Julius Vogel Awards 2009 sub-committee of SFFANZ has issued a call for nominations for science fiction and fantasy works first published or released in the 2008 calendar year.

Nominations close on 28 February 2009.

To make a nomination please email sjv_awards@sffanz.sf.org.nz.

Please send one nomination per email and include as many contact details as possible for the nominee as well as yourself.

You can find full details about the nomination procedures and rules, including eligibility criteria here. These rules can be downloaded as a PDF document here.

A detailed nomination FAQ can be found here.

The voting will occur at Conscription, the national science fiction convention being held in Auckland, New Zealand over Queen's Birthday, 27 May - 1 June 2009.

Please support the works that you like by nominating them, even if you think (or know) that they have already been nominated - additional nominations still matter. The number of nominations a work receives may have a direct bearing on whether it makes it to the final ballot.
