Nominations were accepted from the listening public annually in each of the categories. The list was vetted for eligibility by the steering committee before producers were invited to submit samples of work for consideration by a panel of judges. The panel reduced the list of nominees to five finalists in each category. The finalists' work was submitted for judging and the winner was selected by that panel of authors, podcasters, and others knowledgeable in the field of speculative fiction, podcasting, and/or publishing.{{cite web|url=http://www.parsecawards.com/node/544|title=Parsec Awards 2009 Award Determination Process|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100107032919/http://parsecawards.com/node/544|archive-date=January 7, 2010}} Past finalist judges have included Catherine Asaro, Charles de Lint, Cory Doctorow, and Evo Terra.{{cite web|url=http://parsecawards.com/node/863|title=2009 Parsec Judge Biographies|access-date=March 11, 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100726055855/http://parsecawards.com/node/863|archive-date=July 26, 2010}}
