summary | The creation of a shortlist that includes diverse global science fiction (SF) and fantasy works is proposed with several aims: it would stimulate discussions within fan communities; support authors and publishers pushing genre boundaries by bringing attention to their work, thereby enriching what Science Fiction encompasses; serve as an important reference for librarians, booksellers, educators in search of significant literature. This shortlist also aligns interests at SF conventions where graphic designers who are social media influencers can help amplify the message across platforms such as BookTok (a community centered on book recommendations and discussions), Bookstagram (book-related content creators using Instagram), YouTube channels like Booktube that focus specifically on books, Tumblr for various fandoms including those of literary interest. The call to action includes a need for translators who can make this initiative globally accessible by translating website pages into multiple languages as well as spreading the word through SF groups and online communities worldwide. |
