Deadline for Barlett & Steele is approaching

There’s still time to submit your work for the 2013 Barlett and Steele Awards for Investigative Business Journalism, which offer $8,000 in prizes.

Named for two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists Don Barlett and Jim Steele, the awards were first given in 2007 and have featured a gold award of $5,000 and a silver prize of $2,000. Due to the growing number of exceptional submissions each year, a bronze award of $1,000 was added in 2011.

Entries must have appeared in print or online in the year ended June 30, 2013.

The deadline to apply online is Aug. 1. The awards are operated by the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism.

Last year’s winners were The New York Times, USA Today and a joint project by The Charlotte Observer and The (Raleigh) News & Observer, which won gold, silver and bronze awards, respectively.
