Booksellers have until Monday, October 29, to sign up for the Winter/Spring 2019 Indies Introduce program, which features 10 adult titles and 10 children’s titles chosen by panels of American Booksellers Association member booksellers from across the U.S. as the top debuts of the upcoming publishing season.
The publishers of these debuts are offering specials on all 20 titles, which include titles for adults, young adults, and middle grade readers, all publishing between January and May 2019.
For stores that have taken part in past Indies Introduce promotions, there’s no need to sign up to take advantage of publishers’ Winter/Spring offers; however, stores that are new to Indies Introduce must complete the Indies Introduce sign-up form by October 29 in order to participate in the program.
To access the list of titles with bookseller blurbs and full details on publishers’ offers, booksellers will need a BookWeb.org login name and password (e-mail [email protected] for login information). The Indies Introduce logo is available for download in BookWeb’s DIY and sell sheets will be included in the October Red Box mailing.
