Wheee! I'm so thrilled to report that we've been shortlisted for the Nielsen Book Award for Innovation in the Book Industry for our XSL work. I think we might be in with a chance, too: here's the full shortlist:

Blog a Penguin Classic
CollinsLanguage.com
Lovereading4schools
Snowbooks XSL Project

All shortlists here.

Very exciting! We'll find out at the awards at the BA conference in May. And huge congrats too to Arcardia, and our friends at Mr B's Emporium of Reading Delights who are both shortlisted for TWO awards: Mr B's for independent bookshop of the year and new bookshop of the year, Arcadia for the diversity award and Imprint of the Year. They must win!

Awards! Prizes! Love 'em.

**update** Rob's written a handy little primer on XSL here and here.

Well done - maybe we should enter next year?

Good luck! I already have my fingers crossed for something else, but I'll do my best. I guess I'll have to dictate (not type) the synopsis I'm working on at the moment.
