Nominating a title for LibraryReads is simple:

First, find your title. Details can be found here. Note, you will only be able to nominate Adult titles for LibraryReads. YA and Children’s titles are not eligible.

Click the Review icon in that title listing to write your review. Details about adding reviews can be found here.

Once you’re done writing your review, you’ll have the option to share with the publisher, your Edelweiss friends or colleagues, and Communities. (Note – If you click into Communities, you’ll see the LibraryReads option. This allows you to share with other members of the LibraryReads Community – i.e. other public librarians. Learn more on how to find other librarian’s reviews here.)

If you’re registered for Edelweiss as a Public Librarian, you’ll automatically be a part of the LibraryReads Community! If you’re not sure, just click on your name at the top of any page and look here:
