The National Book Awards
Every year since 1982, the Circle has given the
National Book Awards to the best books written, designed, and published in
the Philippines.
In addition, the Circle also gives Special Awards to
outstanding publishers or publishing projects and Citations for
outstanding achievement in special categories.
In 1995 and 1996, the awarding ceremonies were
telecast over PTV.
No book written or edited by a member is
eligible to win a National Book Award; instead, the Circle gives Members'
Awards to its members who publish books.
