Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Ignatz Awards" in English language version.
The Small Press Expo was scheduled for Sept. 14-15, 2001 in Bethesda, Maryland, but was cancelled due to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The Ignatz is a festival prize determined by a ballot of attendees and exhibitors of the Expo, and, as such, the results of the voting are unique to the environment found at the Expo. The Expo steering committee decided that to hold the Ignatzes without a way to ensure similar results would not be fair to the recipients nor in keeping with the spirit of the award. Therefore, the awards were cancelled for the year.
