Each year, ALA Editions selects some forty new publishing projects to pursue, out of more than one hundred seriously considered.
Most projects originate as proposals from individuals in the library and information services field.
If you want to publish a book or electronic product for librarians, or have good ideas for such products, we're the people to talk to. In a word, projects that are distinctive. We seek original expression and new approaches to the challenges of the day. In the interest of improving service to our communities, we urge authors and prospective authors to consider diversity in relation to their projects. Authors already underway with approved projects should refer to ALA Editions' Author Guidelines and Electronic File Preparation Guidelines as they prepare their manuscript.
