The Singapore International Literary Prize (SILP) is an award given to authors whose works show outstanding ability in writing and in the creative use of language. This is the most prestigious and competitive book award in Singapore. The SILP aims to promote the study of literature and its development, as well as to encourage public interest in books by local authors. It is awarded annually by the National Library Board of Singapore to six authors whose work is deemed most deserving. The six winners receive cash awards of up to S$10,000 each, and a literary trophy designed by artist Yeo Seow Kwong.
Aside from the cash rewards, the winner also receives a place in the New Voices programme at the National Museum of Singapore. The programme allows the winning author to develop his or her professional and creative career. This opportunity also gives the winner access to industry professionals and enables them to learn more about the publishing and book industries.
In addition to the SILP, the NMB also established a Writers’ Centre and an Arts Grant Scheme to support writers and artists in their pursuit of their craft. The centres and grants provide funding, training opportunities and mentorships to authors, to help them in their writing and artistic journey. These programmes are in response to the changing trends in publishing and the growing demand for quality literature, as well as the need to support talented individuals in the field of writing and the arts.
NMB has been working with publishers to develop an environment in which the best talent will be attracted and retained to Singapore. This is in line with the vision of the Singapore Government of making the city-state a global knowledge hub, and the National Library of Singapore’s mission to promote reading for all, by providing the right infrastructure and programmes for readers to grow and thrive.
While the NMB and the Ministry of Education have taken steps to ensure that the educational system is fit for purpose, the prize jury believes that more can be done. One area of concern is that the prize’s focus on individual authors may not do enough to address issues of inequality in science. A study by the magazine Science found that only 12% of the “lead scientists” on papers nominated for the prize were women. Several finalists interviewed by Science said the single-person prize rewarded researchers who worked alone, rather than teams, which can exclude many female scientists from the prize.
