The Indie Book Awards were established in 2008 with the aim of creating a unique award recognising and rewarding the best Australian writing as chosen by Australian independent booksellers. The Awards celebrate the enormous depth and range of literary talent in this nation.

The Indie Book Awards differ from other literary awards because they are chosen by independent booksellers who are renowned for their love of books and reading, support new and emerging Australian authors and foster a love of quality writing.

Vision Australia Library has a wide selection of winners, shortlisted and longlisted books from the Australian Indie book awards available in the catalogue.

We encourage you to embrace this opportunity to discover a new author, delve into a new book and download it to your device!
