The Taylor C. Kirkpatrick Prize for book collecting is a program that recognizes and encourages young book collectors. Established in 2021 by Denver bibliophile and philanthropist Taylor Kirkpatrick, and now offered in partnership with the University of Denver Libraries, this program is open to young book collectors aged 30 and under who reside in Colorado.

Young book collectors are encouraged to submit their thoughtful, creative collections for consideration. Collections will be judged on their thoroughness, the approach to their subject, and the seriousness with which the collector has cataloged and presented their materials. See the link below for more information!
