    The PROSE Awards recognize the very best in professional and scholarly publishing by bringing attention to distinguished books, journals, and electronic content, published annually in over 35 disciplines.  Judged by peer publishers, librarians, and medical professionals since 1976, the PROSE Awards are extraordinary for their breadth and depth. 

    Each year, publishers and authors are recognized at the PSP Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., for their commitment to pioneering works of research and for contributing to the conception, production, and design of landmark works in their fields.  The R. R. Hawkins Award, presented to the most outstanding work among the publications selected, has been given to more than 30 works since its inception.  Indeed, winners represent a broad range of disciplines: they have included Three Thousand Years of Chinese Painting (Yale University Press), and Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy (Elsevier).  Last year, Princeton University Press was the recipient of the R.R. Hawkins Award for The Dream of the Poem by Peter Cole.

    This year’s award’s planning committee has undertaken a number of changes to strengthen the level of participation among member publishers and the representation of published projects, especially journals and electronic publications.
