Literary awards & competitions

The Library helps foster Victoria's writing community by administering awards in scriptwriting and youth literature.

We award The R.E. Ross Trust Playwrights' Script Development Awards annually to help bring scripts with potential to a wider audience.

Each year our Inky Awards celebrate the best in youth literature, with insideadog readers awarding a favourite Australian and international author.

The Victorian Premier's Literary Awards are administered by the Wheeler Centre for Books, Writing & Ideas.
