Booksellers’ Title Recommendations Wanted for 2016 ABC Best Books for Young Readers Catalog

Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

The ABC Children’s Group at ABA is encouraging booksellers at all ABA member stores to submit title recommendations for the 2016 ABC Best Books for Young Readers Catalog. Frontlist titles published between January and October 2016 are sought to fill the catalog with books that children’s booksellers are proud to recommend to shoppers of all ages. Holiday titles will not be included so stores can use the catalog year-round.

Booksellers are encouraged to submit as many recommendations as they would like by Thursday, June 30, via an online form on BookWeb.org or through Edelweiss, where submissions for the Kids’ Indie Next Lists will also be considered for the ABC catalog.

As in previous years, there will be time in late summer to add last-minute title discoveries to the catalog, which will reach stores in early October.

The cover art for the 2016 ABC Best Books for Young Readers Catalog will be unveiled after this May’s BookExpo America. The catalog title list and order form will be available later this summer.
