Sign Up for Book Group Speed Dating [3]
- By Sydney Jarrard [4]
[5]Booksellers are invited to sign up now for ReadingGroupGuides.com’s ninth annual Book Group Speed Dating Event [5]. While the event typically takes place during BookExpo, a virtual version of the event will instead be held on Friday, May 29, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. ET.
Representatives from 25 large, medium, and small publishers will share selections from their publishing houses in a speed-dating format designed to give booksellers, librarians, and book group leaders an inside look at new and upcoming titles that book groups will want to know about and discuss.
E-galleys will be available for select titles from Edelweiss and/or NetGalley. Leave-behinds will be made available in PowerPoint and Excel formats.
Advance signup is required [5]. Attendees will receive non-transferable instructions to access the program the week of the event.
