We book all kinds of events for our authors, including standard bookseller events, school visits, and offsite venues that include book sales! We are also happy to discuss every specific author request and make sure the event format matches what you are looking for and help make it a success.

How to Request:

• As a bookseller or librarian: please submit your request through Edelweiss event grids if possible
  • If you are asking for an author that is not listed on our events grids, please submit through the Sourcebooks Author Request Form
• As an individual: please submit through the Sourcebooks Author Request Form

Things to keep in mind when working with us for events:

• Please submit a request as soon as possible, with as much information as possible – we will need at least a month in advance (preferably 2+ months) to coordinate and confirm an event with you.
• If you are a bookseller and would like to place any event orders through Sourcebooks, please make sure that you have an account set up with us. To set up an account, you can call our customer service, reach out to your book rep, or email our event sales coordinator carrie.conlisk@sourcebooks.com.
• Please be specific if you would like a virtual or an in-person event, and if there is any flexibility on the format.

Sourcebooks puts up Author Events grids seasonally and booksellers, librarians, and other Edelweiss users that coordinate author events are welcome to request on them before they close.

If you do not have access to Sourcebooks event grids and would like to request, please submit through the Google form:
