About this event





Description:
As the traditional book industry landscape evolves and vendors like Baker & Taylor exit the market, procurement teams across libraries, K-12, and higher education are rethinking how they source print and digital books. In this session, Amazon Business books specialists Jared Gradecki and Travis Kelley will walk through the tools built to fill that gap. This includes the free Amazon Business Library Hub (MARC record management, curated new releases, and weekly librarian-led office hours), Business Lists for collaborative, bulk collection-building, and Business Analytics for shipment tracking and reconciliation. Whether you manage a single library or a multi-campus district, you'll leave with practical, time-saving strategies for procuring books in today's changing landscape.
