The Evangelical Christian Publishers Association, in conjunction with Dickinson Press, began the ECPA | dp Book Cover Award program in 2007 to educate, promote and recognize superior cover design in the Christian publishing industry. The program is built on the foundational research of the Research Institute for Social Change [RISC] which measures consumer buying motivations and expands on the direct relationship between cover design and book sales.  Each year, book covers are judged and analyzed by how well their design elements match characteristics of their intended audience.  A webinar is presented to help educate industry designers, editors and marketing professionals on the latest research connecting design to book buying decisions.
