The shortlist and Scandinavian Selection for the “The Public Library Prize for Electronic Literature” has been selected after careful scrutiny by the jury. 55 works of literature were submitted for the contest and due to the high quality of works in the pool, it was difficult to select the shortlist. This is why the jury has has choosen to include an honorable mention to a group of works that were runner-ups to the shortlist.
Danish libraries will from autumn 2019 to spring 2021 work with multi literacy in high schools and public schools and present to the general public works of electronic literature. The selection of works from the Prize for Electronic Literature will form the core of this dissemination effort.
The winner will be announced 30th of April at a public event at Dokk1, Aarhus Denmark and online at litteratursiden.dk.
