Hugo Awards

Christchurch City Libraries lists literary prize winners and links to catalogue searches, but we may not hold copies of all titles mentioned.

The Hugo Awards were established in 1953 as Science Fiction Achievement Awards for the best science fiction writing in several categories. An annual prize of a chrome-plated rocket ship model is awarded at the World Science Fiction Convention.
