The award is announced in the July following the year of publication. The winner receives a golden medal and £500 worth of books to donate to a public or school library.
The original rules stated that an author could only win the Medal once. This rule was later changed to enable subsequent work by the same author to be included for consideration.
(note that years refer to the publication date of the books - the medal was awarded the following year)
