How the MCM Awards are judged
MCM Awards finalists and winners are evaluated by a panel of industry experts through a series of three judging sessions — a prescreening, in-home evaluations, and a final judging session.

All entrants will receive extended feedback from the MCM Awards judging panel, including numerical scores of covers/home page, merchandising, copy, design and production/navigation and usability, and customer service and ordering.
