Sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Round Table (GLBTRT) of the American Library Association (ALA), the Stonewall Book Award is for LGBT books. It is presented annually to English language works of fiction (Barbara Gittings Literature Award), non-fiction (Israel Fishman Non-Fiction Award) and Children's books (Mike Morgan and Larry Romans Children’s & Young Adult Literature Award). Winners are announced in January and presented with a plaque and cash stipend at a ceremony in June or July.
