The ICA Book Award nominations are now open!
Please submit a nomination between now and 11 December at 12:00 Noon ICA Headquarters Time (EST).
- The Outstanding Book Award - The selection committee judges each nominated book on several criteria including the importance of the problem it addresses to the fields represented in ICA and to communication studies as a whole, the quality of writing and argument, and the strength of evidence it presents. The committee will consider all the available book reviews, the reputation of the publisher, and any other submitted evidence regarding the book's quality from independent sources, along with nominating letters and their own assessment of the nominated books.
- The Fellows Book Award - Open to all ICA members, this award recognizes those books that have made a substantial contribution to the scholarship of the communication field as well as the broader rubric of the social sciences and have stood some test of time.
If you would like to nominate a book for either the Outstanding Book Award or Fellows Book Award for 2025, please visit our award page for the nomination links. Award winners will be recognized during the 75th Annual ICA Conference.
