Sam Moskowitz Archive Award
Entry updated 18 August 2025. Tagged: Award.
Award presented annually since 1998 (though with gaps) by First Fandom in memory of Sam Moskowitz, for excellence in collecting sf. Excellence is here understood as going beyond mere accumulation to the constructive use of a collection – as practised by Moskowitz himself – as the basis for biographical, Bibliographical, critical, historical and other reference works of value to the sf community (including Fandom). Usefully loaning out collection items, placing the whole on display or otherwise making works available are also recognized qualifications for this honour. [DRL]
