Book Co-Authorship - How it Works in Great Detail
When you win the A' Design Award via Professional Edition or Digital Edition entry, you gain an exclusive privilege to have your award-winning design featured in our yearbooks. Professional Edition laureates gain two publications; full-page coverage in Hardcover Printed Yearbook of Best Designs, which are generally published in multiple volumes each year. Both the Professional Edition and the Digital Edition A' Design Award laureates gain exclusive full-page feature in our Digital Yearbook. When we publish in the yearbook as a Professional or Digital Edition laureate, there are no fees, no contributions, no winner fees. Moreover, you do not need to lift a finger, because we already have everything necessary to prepare your yearbook pages because initially you had provided us high-resolution images; you will recall that when you join A' Design Award, we have strict requirements, these requirements arise for two reasons: The primary reason is to ensure you have an impeccable presentation, our aim is to ensure all entries have the best and highest level of presentation such that when jury members vote on your entries, they do not vote on presentations but rather the intrinsic design qualities, to assure this we provide Free Preliminary Review and Feedback where we inform you how to fix your presentation, and it is at that stage where we also push you to provide us with high-resolution print-ready images, because with these high-resolution print-ready images we are able to promote your work to journalists worldwide, and this increases your potential for both traditional and digital publications worldwide; and in the end, these high-resolution images are also exceptionally useful for preparing you a very professional yearbook page, the yearbook page preparation where we do layout, typesetting, graphics design and proofreading, are done free of charge to all eligible laureates, so these are some of the values we actively communicate, but there is one value that is rather interesting that we almost forgot to mention; and that is the fact that you are respected so much so that you are noted as a co-author of the yearbooks. That means, every time you win the A' Design Award via Professional Edition or Digital Edition entry, you are also co-authoring books, if you win the A' Design Award via Professional Edition, you would be co-authoring two books with ISBN. Co-authorship is important because it adds significant professional authority to your credentials, you can list the A' Design Award books among books you have co-authored, then co-authorship increases internal recognition within your organization and institutions, especially for academics, co-authoring helps create academic progression points, and for brands co-authorship can contribute to ESG factors, apart from the fact that it can enhance your marketability. With A' Design Award, you achieve the published author credential because the words you had already written for the design yearbook description are used in the yearbook (of course we verify and proofread it and sometimes correct it when necessary), helps create a prolific author profile, and since many universities and academic institutions require faculty to publish books, it can enhance your academic career, and of course as a published author, it may be easier to apply for visas or citizenship since your CV gets richer, apart from the fact that it helps create cross-industry credibility, boosts your CV and profile, and helps you gain discovered but most importantly remembered as libraries and digital book databases index the books, contributing to an ever-lasting legacy. For your brand, having designers and principles with many published books, is indeed further valuable, as it can easily communicate your leadership to audiences far and beyond. We think having your design and design description included and you being noted as a co-author in our prestigious yearbooks creates genuine, lasting value that elevated your professional identity, academic impact as well as brand identity.
