Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Book Award

The Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Book Awards are presented to English language books that have exceptional merit relating to the gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered experience. Though this award's name has been changed, its work continues through the current Stonewall Book Awards presented by the Rainbow Round Table (RRT).

The Stonewall Book Award Seal features a downward pointing Isosceles triangle. Around the triangle, the text: Stonewall Book Award. Inside the triangle, a circle is offset, upper left. The text: American Library Association overlays the right side of the circle and the triangle. Below the text, an open book.
