<strong>Scottish</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> <strong>2007</strong><br />
Shortlist announced<br />
The <strong>Periodical</strong> <strong>Publishers</strong> <strong>Association</strong> in Scotland (PPA Scotland) is pleased to announce today, the<br />
shortlist for the <strong>Scottish</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> <strong>2007</strong>. Spanning the fields of business, entertainment,<br />
communication, design, sport, religion, history, politics, retailing and medical science, 180 entries were<br />
received from forty-five companies with 90 entries reaching the final shortlist. The decision was taken by<br />
the chairman of judges to create two shortlists from the record number of entries to the design category<br />
and awards will be given for Best <strong>Magazine</strong> Design and Best <strong>Magazine</strong> Redesign.<br />
Winners will be announced at a Gala Dinner and Award Ceremony on Thursday 29 November <strong>2007</strong> at<br />
Our Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh. The overall winner and <strong>Magazine</strong> of the Year will be chosen from<br />
category winners and will be announced on the night by the host for the evening, Carol Smillie.<br />
The distinguished panel of judges, chaired by Terry Mansfield CBE, consultant to The Hearst<br />
Corporation, based their decisions on publishing excellence. With more companies than ever submitting<br />
