Featured Project
The Computer History Museum Prize is awarded
by Special Interest Group on Computers, Information, and
Society of the Society for the History of Technology (SIGCIS)
to the author of an outstanding book in the history of computing
broadly conceived, published during the prior three years
(e.g. books published in 2006-2008 are eligible for the inaugural
2009 award). Books in translation are eligible for three
years following the date of their publication in English.
The prize of $1000, established through the generosity of
an anonymous donor who wishes to honor the Computer History
Museum, is administered by SIGCIS, SHOT's special interest
group for computers, information and society.
Publishers, authors, and other interested members of the
computer-history community are invited to nominate books.
Send one copy of the nominated title to each of the committee
members listed below. To be considered, book submissions
must be postmarked by 1 April 2009. The latest information
about the CHM Prize can be found at the SICIS
website or contact the prize committee chair or SIGCIS
secretary.
