DH Awards 2015 Results

The winners of the DH Awards 2015 are as follows. Once ‘accidental’ (and not so accidental) duplicates of the 1922 ballots were removed there were 1862 ballots cast by members of the public over two weeks voting for one or more of the categories. Sorry if your favoured resource did not win — open public votes are popularity contests and some of the contestants campaigned more than the others. Since this is a DH awareness activity, if lots of people saw your favoured resource, then we all win. If you wish you may submit feedback at: http://goo.gl/forms/RLAfuv5wDj.
