- **Publisher of the Year** will honor the publishing company that has demonstrated exceptional commitment to songwriters, composers, and the broader independent industry.
- **Distributor of the Year** will celebrate the distributor that has made significant contributions to the distribution of independent music.

“The Libera Awards show is the biggest night of the year for independent music. An opportunity to celebrate the incredible talent, diversity, creativity, and hard work that takes place throughout the year. And an opportunity for us all to gather in one place and embrace the strength of our community,” said **Dr. Richard James Burgess, MBE, President and CEO of A2IM.**
