It’s one thing to read a market listing – this is what we want. It is something else altogether to hear the publishers talk about upcoming titles they are enthusiastic about. But that’s the offer that School Library Journal is offering us in a free webcast.
Title: New Nonfiction for Spring
Date: Wednesday, March 06, 2019
Time: 02:00 PM Eastern Standard Time
Duration: 1 hour
Description: Who doesn’t love new and engaging nonfiction? From a delightful tale of a budding ballerina to STEM projects for Minecraft lovers — and everything in between — these fun and informational series and titles are sure to inspire your curious students and young patrons. Join publishing insiders for an array of nonfiction to deck out your shelves this spring!
Panelists include:
Anna Erickson, VP, Sales & Marketing, Amicus Publishing
Kate Riggs, Managing Editor, The Creative Company
Lizzy Mason, Director of Marketing & Publicity, Page Street Kids
Jim Marshall, Director of Marketing, Rosen Publishing Group
Jarad Waxman, Director of Sales & Marketing, Scholastic Library Publishing
The fact of the matter is that seeing what various publishers are promoting can give you an idea what to submit where. What do I mean? If The Creative Company is excited about their book about wild horse rescue, you aren’t going to want to send them your own manuscript on this topic.
One of the things that I like best about School Library Journal and Library Journal web events is that if you can’t make it when the event is scheduled you will have access to a recording of the event.
