The study of texts, images, and artifacts as material objects should be integral to the essay’s argument and the evidence upon which it relies. The prize is open to academic researchers and teachers at all career stages, as well as librarians, curators, and independent scholars. Self-nominations are encouraged. Current and former members of the SoFCB and Rare Book School full-time staff are ineligible for the prize. 

Articles with a publication date of 2020 or 2021 are eligible for the 2022 prize.  

Deadline for submission: 1 March 2022. Articles may be sent as a PDF attachment to sofcb_prizes at virginia.edu <mailto:sofcb_prizes at virginia.edu>. In your message, please provide preferred contact details for the author(s) of the essay and include an abstract (no more than 250 words) outlining the essay’s original contribution to the study of texts, images, and artifacts as material objects. Limit one submission per author. 
The SoFCB was formed in 2017 as a program of Rare Book School at the University of Virginia. Our members seek to integrate methods of critical bibliography into our teaching and research; to foster collegial conversations about historical and emerging media across disciplines and institutions; and to share our knowledge with broader publics. We are committed to creating a more accessible, inclusive, and diverse context for the study of the material text.
