WSFS
WSFS, or the World Science Fiction Society, is the unincorporated literary society that sponsors Worldcon and administers the Hugo Awards.
It is not to be confused with the historic, disastrous WSFS Inc.
The World Science Fiction Society. The unincorporated literary society whose members are made up of Worldcon attendees, who choose the recipients of the annual Hugo Awards and select the site for an upcoming World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon), presently the one which is two years in the future. (It used to be done just a year in advance, but as Worldcons have grown larger and more complex, more planning time – and a larger number of planners – is required.)
