Taylor Swift has set a songwriting record!

The Nashville Songwriters Association International has announced it will name Swift its Songwriter/Artist of the Year for a record-setting sixth time, beating out five-time winners Vince Gill and Alan Jackson. She’s also the youngest artist to receive the award.

The award honors Nashville performers who have landed Top 30 singles, which means Swift easily qualifies for the award, having released 14 Top 30 songs from July 2012 through June 2013.

Her six awards will be put on display at the Taylor Swift Education Center, which opens Saturday at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville. The facility was named for the singer in honor of her $4 million donation to the center.
