“. . . like a great, friendly brain full of thoughts and memories it's ready to share." —Natalie Babbitt

With major media attention and high demand from the reading public, many new nonfiction titles become immediate “must-haves” for libraries. With Ingram's Popular Adult Nonfiction Standing Order Program, it's easy to order top nonfiction titles and have them on your shelves and ready for circulation by street date.

Our MLS-degreed librarians and expert buyers work closely with publishers to anticipate the titles that will resonate with your patrons. Each month, they select the best forthcoming nonfiction titles to be included in the program. While the number of titles can vary according to the season, the average is about 25 titles per month.

Please visit ipage, our online collection development and account management tool, to access our Standing Order Programs. For more information about this program, contact us at (800) 937-5300 Ext. 35748 or e-mail us at standing.orders@ingrambook.com.

Aside from all of the great selection lists on ipage, how can I stay current with new hot titles for my patrons?
