Il Premio Letterario Margaret e Colin Roderick (Margaret and Colin Roderick Award) è un riconoscimento assegnato annualmente al miglior libro pubblicato in Australia trattante un aspetto qualsiasi della vita australiana.
Istituito nel 1967, è amministrato dalla Foundation for Australian Literary Studies (FALS) dell'Università James Cook e riconosce al vincitore un premio di 50000 dollari australiani.
Prende il nome dal fondatore del riconoscimento, lo scrittore e accademico Colin Roderick (1911-2000) e da sua moglie Margaret.
