October Indie Next List E-Newsletter Delivered

Last Thursday, the American Booksellers Association's e-newsletter edition of the Indie Next List for October was delivered to half a million of the country's best book readers. The newsletter was sent to customers of 132 independent bookstores, with a combined total of 499,687 subscribers.

The e-newsletter, powered by Shelf Awareness, features all of the month's Indie Next List titles, with bookseller quotes and "buy now" buttons that lead directly to the purchase page for the title on the sending store's website. The newsletter, which is branded with each store's logo, also includes an interview (from Bookselling This Week) with the author whose book was chosen by booksellers as the number-one Indie Next List pick for the month, in this case Virgil Wander by Leif Enger (Grove Press).

For a sample of the September newsletter, see this one from River Bend Bookshop, Glastonbury, Conn.
