There is also a category for aspiring students to enter their work, with the chance to win a cheque for £500 as well as a short internship with a leading designer, publisher or printer.

Industry experts from the areas of design, publishing and production will judge the entries and stamp the book that outshines the rest with the title of ‘Book of the Year'.

The deadline for entries is Friday 29 June 2018. The awards will be presented at a dazzling ceremony on 22 November 2018 at the Montcalm London Marble Arch Hotel.
