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.
