LOS ANGELES, Sept. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- LibraryBub was
established by bestselling author Alinka
Rutkowska in 2015. An industry first, it is dedicated to
making strong, mutual connections between indie and small-press
authors and an extensive network of libraries. Imbued with the
enthusiasm and ambition of its founder, it works in conjunction
with all major libraries. The core commitment of the LibraryBub
service is to help librarians to identify acclaimed books from the
independent publishing sector. Offering an extensive range of
outreach and output, Rutkowska enables thousands of emerging
authors to achieve publishing success.
LibraryBub introduces thousands of librarians to bestselling and
award-winning books from the independent publishing sector. These
books hold immense potential for enhancing the lives of their
readers. "Libraries were a huge part of my life," Newbery Honor laureate Kimberly Brubaker Bradley recalls. She was keen
to have her finger on the pulse. "When I was growing up, my mom and
I went every week to the Georgetown branch library, and sometimes made
trips to the main library downtown, where I loved the enormous
globe in the lobby. In Indianapolis, the library printed lists of
upcoming new releases; I kept careful watch so I could always check
out the new Dick Francis novels the
day they were released." Librarians enable writers to make that
kind of difference to people's lives and LibraryBub CEO
Alinka Rutkowska considers it a
privilege to support them in that role.
This month's list of standout books by self-publishing authors
appears below. The selected publications have impressed independent
critics and have been enthusiastically received by devotees and
newfound readers alike. Some have already become Amazon best
sellers in their particular categories. Impressively, several of
the books have won awards within the independent publishing
sector.
