![Printer-friendly version Printer-friendly version](https://www.bookweb.org/sites/all/modules/contrib/print/icons/print_icon.png)
Bookstores taking part in the Indie Next List Years of Discovery display contest have until August 31 to share photos of their August Indie Next List title displays by posting a photo to social media (using the hashtag #INLAugust) or featuring the display in a store e-newsletter (forwarded to ABA Social Media Manager Catherine Cusick).
September displays must be shared by Friday, September 9, using the hashtag #INLSeptember for stores to earn the extra registration for Winter Institute 12, which will be held in Minneapolis from January 27 to 30, 2017. Photos submitted by the deadline will ensure stores receive credit for posting before registration opens.
Once Wi12 registration opens, booksellers should be sure to register promptly to secure their first three registrations online. Qualifying stores should then call their Member Relationship Manager to secure the fourth registration separately: Nathan Halter (for the NCIBA, SCIBA, MPIBA, PNBA, SIBA regions) at (800) 637-0037, ext. 7514, or Catherine Cusick (for NAIBA, NEIBA, GLIBA, MIBA) at (800) 637-0037, ext. 7566.
All stores that mount and share photos of their June, July, August, and September Indie Next List displays will automatically be entitled to bring an additional bookseller to Winter Institute 2017. From those stores, 10 will be chosen to win a complimentary registration fee (approximately a $99 value) to Winter Institute 2017. Eligibility and entry requirements for the bookstore display contest are available here.
As part of the Indie Next List Years of Discovery Campaign, the Indie Next List Great Reads giveaway continues with the July and August Indie Next Lists. Customers at all ABA member stores can fill out a coupon on the July or August fliers to enter a sweepstakes to win all 20 of the month’s Indie Next List Great Reads. Coupon entries for the July Indie Next List must be sent to ABA by legal residents of the U.S. over the age of 13 by August 15, 2016. The July winner will be chosen at random and notified within 60 days. Complete sweepstakes rules are available here.
