2025 Publication of the Year Award

The Publication of the Year Award recognizes a book or other publication created in partnership by a nonprofit organization and a land management agency that embodies innovation in educating and interpreting public lands to its readers and impacts a substantial audience. Two awards are given annually based on the annual revenue of the nonprofit public lands partner that helped develop the product. Nominees may be produced in any media (e.g. hardback, paperback and/or digital) and published in the calendar year 2023 or 2024.

   Please mail (5) copies that best represent your submission to the Public Lands Alliance office so that they are received prior to November 14, 2024. Copies will be sent to our judges for review; we are unable to return these copies to submitters. Please send these copies to the address found on our website: Public Lands Alliance 1835 7th St NW, #242 Washington, DC 20001

   We highly encourage sending supporting evidence that best demonstrates impact, innovation, and context related to your submission. Please attach URL links, online documents, web content, brochures, photos, and other media to this application.

Note: You will need to create an online account in order to submit, which will allow you to save and edit your proposal before submitting it. This account is separate from PLA member accounts.
