Manitobans are at
the heart of what we do.

Our main goal is to serve the community at large: readers, librarians, teachers, and book buyers who care about new stories, emerging voices, and excellence in all aspects of writing and publishing.

The awards are one of the most visible ways we celebrate the talent, labour and heart which give this province’s literature such a strong national reputation.
