Going, Going, Green: Recommendations Sought for Valuable Resource

There is still time for all ABA member booksellers to submit nominations for a selected list of notable titles dealing with the environment.

"Please do nominate for the list the titles that you consider essential reading," said Dan Cullen, ABA senior director of editorial content. "Everything from how to modify personal and business practices to conserve resources and cut carbon emissions to titles focusing on public policy -- so that ABA can compile a strong recommended 'Green List.'"

Modeled after the successful "Shop Local" list of notable titles, which was compiled from the recommendations of indie booksellers, the Green List will be a selection of titles -- new and backlist, hardcover and paperback -- that booksellers believe are of both immediate and lasting value.

Booksellers are asked to e-mail nominations for the Green List to Cullen at dan@bookweb.org and include the words "green list" in the subject line. The deadline for submissions to the Green List is Friday, March 28.
