Both prizes will be available in an open and an early career researcher (ECR) category (that is, in any year, ANZSIL may award the ANZSIL book prize; the ANZSIL book prize (early career); the ANZSIL journal article/book chapter prize; and the ANZSIL journal article/book chapter prize (early career). ECR publications may be eligible to be awarded the ECR and/or the open prize. If an ECR publication is awarded the open prize in any category, the ECR publication will be awarded the open prize (either the ANZSIL book prize or the ANZSIL journal article/book chapter prize) and there will not be an award of the ECR prize in that category. Prizes are to be awarded annually, with the announcement of the winner of the prizes to be made at the annual ANZSIL conference in June/July. A sum of $750 will be awarded to each winning ANZSIL book and a sum of $250 will be awarded to each winning article/book chapter. The ANZSIL book and article/book chapter prize winners will be invited to present and discuss their book/article/book chapter at an online event in August/September of the year of the award or at the annual conference. In accepting a publication prize, the winner of a prize agrees to act as an assessor in the subsequent year in the category in which their prize was awarded.
