. . . the one place I always feel at home-no matter how far from home I am."

With major media attention and high demand from the reading public, many new nonfiction titles become immediate 'must-haves' for libraries. With Ingram's new 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 and automatically place them on backorder for your library. ipage users can click here to view past picks for this program.

While the number of titles can vary according to the season, you will receive an average of 25 titles per month. We provide a monthly ipage® report listing the titles placed on your account. This advance notice allows you to review and even alter your order, if needed. For more information about this program, e-mail us at ExperienceIt@ingrambook.com, or sign up today at ingramlibrary.com/nonfictionform.
I've recently started working at a library that does a lot of thematic displays. Can you recommend titles or themes that would be appropriate for a library display?
--Display Diva

Dear Display,
Any time you need assistance with thematic lists or just need collection development ideas, turn to the Collection Development tab on ipage®.

Adult titles and themes can be found by clicking the Adult Books and Audiobooks link and then Quick Lists. Also from the Collection Development tab, you can explore our new Thematic Lists. These lists are more time sensitive and are listed by month.

Ideas for YA displays can be found by clicking the Youth Books and Audiobooks, also on the Collection Development tab. Here you'll find an array of lists and themes that will appeal to your younger patrons.

Best if all, since our team of MLS-degreed librarians selects our lists, all titles are suitable for libraries!
