Can you explain the IBPA program, and how publishers and authors of different sizes can participate in NetGalley?

IBPA is the Independent Book Publishers Association, based in the US, and NetGalley is pleased to partner with them. IBPA has a branded, discounted NetGalley program that makes it easy for small and indie publishers and authors to list titles on NetGalley.

Remember, you can also list a single title directly with NetGalley.

IBPA offers several ways to participate, depending on your budget.

• IBPA publishers and authors can book a discounted listing on NetGalley for a 6 month period.
• Titles will be active on the NetGalley site for 6 months, available in the NetGalley catalog for professional readers to READ NOW (all members have automatic approval).

• Support inquiries and questions will be handled by IBPA staff.

2. $199 Three-month title listing via IBPA
