6 Steps to Get Your Self-Published Book Into Libraries | Jane Friedman

6 Steps to Get Your Self-Published Book Into Libraries | Jane Friedman:
While this worked for library systems in Ontario, Canada, the same steps should work for any local library system. I’m also sharing the template I used to approach libraries.
1. Research, research, research.

Look at the public library’s website to find out whether they have a system for accepting self-published books into circulation. Or you can contact the head librarian or the procurement librarian for the specific department that corresponds to your book genre. For example, I always looked for the head children’s librarian of the system that I was reaching out to.
