Mark R. Kelly stellt den "LOCUS Index to Science Fiction Awards" zusammen: "This Awards Index compiles results of awards given in the fields of Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror. These are awards primarily concerned with books, writers, and publishing (...), and the awards compiled here range from professional honors analogous to the Oscar or Emmy awards, to reader polls, academic prizes, and awards made by the community of 'fans' who are devoted to the literary SF genre". Kelly verzeichnet unter anderem den Lambda Literary Award, den deutschen Kurd Laßwitz-Preis und den Preis der Science Fiction Research Association SFRA.
