The winners of the book industry's most important trade awards, the British Book Industry Awards (BBIA), were announced on Monday evening at the Wellcome Trust Auditorium on their Genome Campus in Hinxton, Cambridge. Representatives of all sectors of the book industry - from independent booksellers to CEOs of major publishing companies - attended an upbeat awards ceremony presented by BBC Radio 4's The Now Show: Steve Punt, Hugh Dennis and John Holmes, during the Booksellers Industry Conference, to pay tribute to the achievements of booksellers and publishers across the UK. The BBIA - the sister ceremony to the Galaxy British Book Awards - are organised by Publishing News in conjunction with the Booksellers Association. The event is the only one of its kind to honour all sectors of the book business and has provided the industry with a prestigious platform from which it has been able to recognise and reward its own.
