This is for Library Roles in Trade Book Publishing only, a single live online stand alone course, and not for the entire 7-week series.
Libraries are a vital part of the book publishing industry, yet authors often overlook them as an important market for reaching readers and building a book’s long-term success.
In this seminar, Your Publishing Professor, Sara Wigal, explains how libraries acquire, evaluate, distribute, and pay for books—and how authors can successfully position and market their books to libraries.
How to get your book into libraries and how librarians evaluate books for their collections
How library collections, acquisitions, and book distribution channels work
How to position your book for library acquisition and collection development
Effective strategies for marketing books to libraries and librarians
How public and school libraries are affected by book banning and censorship
How authors and publishers get paid when libraries purchase books
How libraries fit into the larger trade publishing ecosystem
The second hour features a live Q&A with Pat Bashir, Children’s Manager at Nashville Public Library Main Branch, giving you the opportunity to hear directly from a working librarian about how libraries select and acquire books.
