This year, high participation is expected again. This is an opportunity for the indie community to come together in the library to help local self-published and independent authors get discovered and for readers to find new books written by fellow community members. Beyond this annual event, the Indie Author Day community offers programming on the indieauthorday.comwebsite to help libraries and authors stay connected throughout the year.
