Connecticut Center for the Book Is On Hiatus

The Connecticut Center for the Book is on hiatus and there will not be Connecticut Book Awards in 2023. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience and disappointment this will cause, but we are optimistic for the future of the book awards and ways to accommodate those of you who published in 2022.

Connecticut Grown Literature

Connecticut Center for the Book is the state affiliate of the national Center for the Book in the Library of Congress. Our mission is to promote the written and spoken word throughout the state, and to foster a love of reading for the people of Connecticut.
