Hello Friends,
We hope you, your families, and your patrons are all well and safe.
While the situation with COVID-19 is ever-changing, we want you to know what remains steady is our concern for all of you.
We know you are committed to your patrons and we recognize the challenges you’re facing.
HarperCollins is expanding our pay-per-circulation catalog to make sure patrons have immediate access to as many of our titles as possible. Please check with your preferred wholesaler for details. Additionally, all of our reading guides and activity sheets are available on the Overdrive, Hoopla, and Baker & Taylor resource sites, accessible to parents and teachers.
For online resources, go to www.LibraryLoveFest.com to access our online Book Club Catalog, author interviews on our podcast, and videos of the Library Love Fest Team talking about books they love. All of our videos are also archived on YouTube here.
You can get whitelisted to receive our egalleys on Edelweiss and NetGalley. Just send an email to us at librarylovefest@harpercollins.com.
The Library Love Fest Team is determined to keep things as ‘normal’ as possible during a time that is anything but normal. We’ll be coming to you via Facebook Live now more than ever to connect, talk about books, authors, and life in general. Virginia just went on Facebook Live this week to catch up and talk about Monogamy by Sue Miller. Watch the replay here. Be sure to like us on Facebook to receive alerts when we go live.
So while we all wade through these uncharted waters, let’s check in on each other. Give us a call and leave us a voicemail at (212) 207-7773. Be sure to let us know how to get in touch with you. Tell us how you are. Tell us how you’re reaching your patrons and let us know how we can help.
Take good care and thank you for all you do for readers and writers everywhere.
-Virginia, Chris, and Lainey
