International DUBLIN Literary Award

The International DUBLIN Literary Award ( Irish : Duais Liteartha Idirnáisiúnta Bhaile Átha Chliath ), until 2015 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award , is an international literary award that has been awarded annually in Dublin since 1996 for a single literary work. The original donor of the award was the American company Improved Management Productivity and Control (IMPAC) .

Numerous libraries worldwide are involved in the nomination of the longlist . The winner will be chosen from a shortlist of around 10 books. The prize is endowed with 100,000 euros, making it the most valuable prize for a single work that is not written in English, but must be in English. If the award-winning work has been translated from another language, the author will receive 75% of the award amount and the translator 25%.
