Non-notable book. Fails WP:NOTBOOK. reddogsix (talk) 04:05, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. There isn't enough coverage out there to show that this book passes notability guidelines. The award is very minor, as it's for a recently launched organization/event and I can't see where that event passes notability guidelines either. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:22, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please Don't Delete This book is an independent and in depth look at a key sector of information technology. A number of other lesser books also have articles, even those that have not won any awards. A notable book and an article with no issues suggests keeping the article. Moreover this book is available for sale on amazon.com and link for this book is [1]• Shahzad91 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 16:55, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete: The four Amazon reviews it has gathered in its four weeks in print are WP:UGC; the World Reading Day listing is not notable in itself. No evidence found of notability for this book, published this month on CreateSpace. AllyD (talk) 07:05, 23 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: A recently self-published book that hasn't attracted enough media attention to sufficiently support a claim to notability. Well done for the award, but that's not enough. Moswento ^talky 08:45, 23 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
