The British Book Awards or Nibbies are literary awards for the best UK writers and their works, administered by The Bookseller. The awards have had several previous names, owners and sponsors since being launched in 1990, including the National Book Awards from 2010 to 2014.
Book award history
The British Book Awards, or Nibbies, ran from 1990 to 2009 and were founded by the editor of Publishing News. The awards were then acquired by Agile Marketing, which renamed them the National Book Awards and called them the Galaxy National Book Awards (2010–2011) and later the Specsavers National Book Awards (2012–2014) after their headline sponsors. There were no National Book Awards after 2014; in 2017 the awards were acquired by The Bookseller from the estate of Publishing News' founder, Fred Newman, and renamed back to the British Book Awards or Nibbies.
In 2018, a Specsavers National Book Awards ceremony was held on 20 November but was unrelated to the Nibbies.
In 2005, The Bookseller launched a separate scheme, The Bookseller Retail Awards (winners not listed in this article). In 2010, running parallel to the National Book Awards, The Bookseller unified The Nibbies with its retail awards to produce The Bookseller Industry Awards (winners not listed in this article).
The awards are known as the Nibbies because of the golden nib-shaped trophy given to winners.

Salman Rushdie was recognised with a special Freedom to Publish honour. It is only the second time that the British Book Awards regime has conferred this prize, previously being awarded in 2022 to HarperCollins UK and its publishing director Arabella Pike "in recognition of their defense of authors against interference from Russian oligarchs, and for their ‘robust defense of investigative non-fiction and publishing in the public interest."

2020 Books of the Year
The shortlisted nominees were announced on 20 March 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the live event due to be held on 18 May 2020 was cancelled and the ceremony was held online over a month later in June 2020. This year's ceremony was named Event of the Year at the 2020 Independent Publisher Awards.
In celebration of the Nibbies' 30th anniversary, 2020 saw a special award called "30 from 30" to celebrate the best of the best, where a longlist of 30 previous winners was narrowed down by a public poll to a shortlist of 10 nominees, plus a wildcard entry (This Is Going to Hurt by Adam Kay), that had not taken home a trophy in the past.
2020 was a notable year for the Nibbies in that except for illustrator Axel Scheffler, who won with his longtime co-creator Julia Donaldson, the programme's entire slate of authorial honours went to women and the Book of the Year and Author of the Year categories had their first ever black winners.
Presented: 29 June 2020 – Online ceremony due to COVID-19.
