"The Andrew Carnegie Medals for Excellence in Fiction and Nonfiction are annual awards recognizing the best fiction and nonfiction books for adult readers published in the U.S. the previous year. They are given by the American Library Association (ALA) and are unique as the first single-book awards for adult books from the ALA, reflecting the expertise of library professionals.
The awards are cosponsored by Booklist and RUSA (ALA's Reference and User Services Association). Winners in both fiction and nonfiction receive a $5,000 cash award, while finalists receive $1,500. The awards were established in 2012 and are named in honor of Andrew Carnegie, recognizing his belief in the power of books and learning."
