ABA Book Lists in Response to Orlando Tragedy

Shelf Awareness

In response to last week's tragedy in Orlando, Fla., and "to help bookstores around the country address the needs of customers looking for books on LGBTQ issues, acceptance, and grief," the American Booksellers Association has compiled a list of relevant titles suggested by member booksellers, Bookselling This Week reported.
The initial list, which has grown to nearly 400 titles, is available as an Excel file on BookWeb.org.
A flier featuring children's backlist titles on LGBTQ themes was available at the Children's Institute Welcome Reception and Backlist Book Swap Party in Orlando last night and is also ready for download as a PDF on the BookWeb resource page
