LIBRARY REQUEST EXCHANGE

The Library Request Exchange is a grassroots effort for indie writers like you and me who want our books in libraries. It will also benefit readers, who would want to read our books if they knew about them. 

Here's how it works:
  1. By submitting a COMMENT below, we exchange book info: Author, Title, Publisher, ISBN, genre/subject.
  2. Then you put in a request (called a patron recommendation) at your local library for my book, and I put in a request at mine for your book.
Simple, right?

Here's the information you'll need to submit the patron recommendation (NOTE: You may have two enter two requests--one for print and one for ebook, which have different ISBNs.)

  • Author:
  • Title:
  • Publisher:
  • ISBN (print):
  • ISBN (ebook):
  • genre/subject: 
  •  Author's email address: (to advise if your library makes the purchase)
Submit your information in the comments below and make a "patron recommendation" for your local library to purchase the other books listed in the comments

For example, to make a patron recommendation at the St. Louis County Library, I select "Suggest A Purchase" under the "Library Links" on the Home Page: http://www.slcl.org/using-the-library/suggest-a-purchase

Once your library advises you they've accepted the purchase request, please advise the author so he/she can publicize its availability. Active interest will encourage the library to make future purchases of that author's work. 

And finally, check out the book and enjoy! We're readers, too, after all.  

Thanks for helping spread the word about the Library Request Exchange!
