* Specialty Bookseller 5.
* Campus Bookseller 6.
* Bookseller 7.
* Editor 8.
* Salesperson 9.
* Distributor 10.
* Small Press Publisher 11.

* Young Readers' Book The CBA Lifetime Achievement Award is also associated with the Libris Awards, although not officially a category. The awards are presented at the national CBA conference gala. Notable previous winners include Alice Munro, Mordecai Richler, senator and former United Nations peacekeeping commander Roméo Dallaire, politician and diplomat Stephen Lewis, and environmentalist David Suzuki. The bookseller awards, meant to recognize "excellence in book retailing", are not necessarily indicative of profit: as a National Post article noted, one Toronto-based bookstore announced that it was closing only a few days after receiving the Specialty Bookseller award.
