From the American Library Association:
Taking ALA Publishing beyond its traditional market of library and information professionals, the American Library Association announces the launch of a new publishing imprint, Huron Street Press. In line with ALA’s mission to enhance learning and ensure access to information for all, Huron Street Press will publish a variety of titles designed to appeal to a broad consumer and library market. Its publications will harness the expertise of the Association, while encouraging library use among the public, joining other initiatives such as @ your library and ilovelibraries.
A trade imprint, Huron Street Press titles will be available through Independent Publishers Group as well as numerous traditional retail outlets in both print and e-book editions. Its first season of titles is now available for pre-order and includes:
- “Read with Me: Best Books for Preschoolers,” by Stephanie Zvirin;
- “Build Your Own App for Fun and Profit,” by Scott La Counte;
- “I Don’t Want to Go to College: Other Paths to Success,” by Heather Hutchins;
- “Finding Your Roots: Easy-to-Do Genealogy and Family History,” by Janice Schultz;
