Editing Prometheus Award (section)

== Process ==
Books published in a given year are eligible (although books from the last few months of the previous year are also eligible if it is felt that they have been overlooked).

# All members may nominate novels for the award.
# Members of the Best Novel Committee read all of the nominated novels (typically between 12 and 16) and vote for a slate of typically 5 finalists.
# Full members, Sponsors and Benefactors (higher membership levels) then vote on the finalists.

Step 2 happens in the first few months of the following year.

Step 3 happens in early summer of the following year.

The awards are given at the Annual [[Worldcon]] or NASFIC or, during and since the pandemic, presented live via Zoom and then posted on YouTube and the Videos page of the LFS website (www.lfs.org).
