Nita Kibble Literary Awards
The Kibble Literary Awards, formerly known as the Nita Kibble Literary Awards, are a former set of two Australian literary awards: the Nita B Kibble Literary Award, which recognises the work of an established Australian female writer, and the Dobbie Literary Award, which is for a first published work by a female writer. Named in honour of State Library of New South Wales librarian Nita Kibble, the awards recognise the works of women writers of fiction or non-fiction classified as "life writing". They were established in 1994, and ceased after 2018.
