A new award for best young student has been added to the Australasian Catalogue Association's 26th Catalogue Awards.
Entries are open for the awards, which will be presented at Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre (MCEC) on August 25.
The growing awards programme is now trans-Tasman and with more than 700 entries and 750 attendees last year, competition is expected to be fierce this year. Direct mail also gets its own category this year, covering loyalty programmes, magalogues and other material now being delivered direct to VIP customers and catalogues via subscription.
Libbi Gorr, who organisers describe as Australia's "cheekiest personality", will be MC.
Award entries close on May 31, with judging from June 13-16 (Melbourne), June 16 (Auckland) and June 20-23 (Sydney).
