GLIBA BOARD NOMINATIONS

NOMINATE

GLIBA has amended its board member nomination process to encourage new and diverse voices to represent our region and to promote self-nominations.

We are looking for new board candidates all year long so submit today!

PREFERRED READING GENRE & ARC REQUEST SURVEY

SUBMIT

​Fill Out our Preferred Reading Genre and ARC Request Survey

We created this program for booksellers to let publishers know what genres they prefer reading and to help the right ARCs and Galleys get to the right booksellers. We also intended this program to help prioritize ARC shipping and cut down on waste.

This info is shared with all GLIBA member publishing partners.​

JOIN GLIBA'S DISCORD

DISCORD INFO

As GLIBA looks to the future we are always striving to find new ways to stay connected with each other in our region. We started a Discord Server exclusively for GLIBA booksellers.

Stay in touch and ask questions of your fellow GLIBA Booksellers by joining the GLIBA Discord! Email larry@gliba.org for an invitation. This is a private forum.
