Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust Book Awards information


The Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust Book Awards, formerly known as the Scottish Arts Council Book Awards, Scottish Arts Council Creative Scotland Award (2001), and Sundial Scottish Arts Council Book Awards (2007-2008), were a series of annual literary awards in Scotland that ran from 1972[1] to 2013. Organised by Creative Scotland (formerly the Scottish Arts Council/SAC), it was sponsored by the Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust (2013), Sundial Properties (at least 2007-2008).

Starting in 2007, the Scottish Arts Council Book Awards have recognised and rewarded Scottish authors in four categories: Fiction (including the short story), Poetry, Nonfiction and First Book.[1] The winners in each category were selected by a panel of judges, and a public vote decided the overall winner of the Book of the Year award. The selected authors either live in Scotland or wrote a book that is of Scottish interest.[2]

In 1999 a new overall prize of £10,000 for the Book of the Year. In 2013 the category winners received £5,000 each, with the Book of the Year winner receiving a further £25,000.[1][2]
