The awards night is always a special evening where we recognise the achievements of our finalists and of their tutors and we celebrate everyone who takes part in the competition. It is one of the highlights of the year for DCU Library staff, who participate in the judging and organising of the competition.
The overall winner will be announced by our guest speaker on the night, Aingeala Flannery. Aingeala is a broadcaster and journalist and is the author of the award-winning novel The Amusements.
