Promoting to Libraries

Interno--Gigi Chessa Getting your book onto library shelves means you’re reaching a wider audience of readers. For my thoughts and tips on library marketing, please pop over and visit me today at Alan Orloff’s blog, A Million Blogging Monkeys.

  1. Reviews from Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, Booklist and Kirkus appear to have the most influence on library acquisitions. One or more good reviews from these publications will help library sales enormously. But just like with the TV shows, public support is important. So if you’re a reader, request books at your library!

  6. I love borrowing from the library but I always feel a bit guilty that all the foreign authors I read don’t see any compensation for my reading habits; only local authors are eligible. If I really enjoy a book I either add it to my “Buy to read again” list or I look out for a new book by that author to buy.
