The Philip K. Dick Award, sponsored by the Philadelphia Science Fiction Society, is given to the best original paperback published each year in the United States. The Award was founded in 1983 by Thomas M. Disch in honor of Philip K. Dick, who published most of his books as paperback originals. Five judges read submissions from publishers and determine the shortlist, then the winner. Judges choose their own successors, and only writers or academics are eligible to be judges.
