Initially, the William and Joyce Middleton Electrical Engineering History Award will be for a book published in English. Books that have been translated from another language will be eligible for three years after publication date of the translation. Books will be considered that have been published in the previous three years (e.g., books eligible for the 2014 award will have been published in 2011–2013).
Publishers are invited to nominate published books that they wish to have considered for the award, by sending an email, giving the book's title and publication information, to ieee-history@ieee.org. Nominations must be received by 1 December, in order to be considered for the following calendar year’s award. The IEEE History Committee expects to make its decision each year by 1 September.
