For the first time, PW will publish a special supplement ahead of this year's American Library Association's annual conference set for June 23-28 in New Orleans.

Andrew Albanese will be overseeing the supplement's editorial content and can be reached at [email protected]. Continue reading at 'Publishers Weekly'
