The Annual Events List is described as being a “List of annual conventions and conferences, especially libraries and tech”. And so of course there’s all sorts of events listed. The list itself has been a list on the move, now being hosted on its third Twitter handle! Never could decide what I should or shouldn’t list, so I decided to just list EVERYTHING. What separates this one and the list below is that there is no TweetedTimes outlet. NOPE. Every event is important to somebody, so you’re just going to have to read about the events from the official Twitter handles themselves–!
The Bookstores and Reading List kind of grew out of the Annual Events List, in my wanting to have a single place to read about book-related events; hence, its description, “Annual Book Festivals, Bookstores, and Book Reading”. There’s a good handful of bookstores that not only host author appearances but these events are filmed and later broadcast on BookTV/C-SPAN2 and thereby permanently archived online on its website. I’ve tried to spotlight these events, filmed or not, as opposed to authors themselves on this list. There’s also book clubs like @Well-Read Black Girl ™, online book TV shows like @The Tea, book subscription boxes like @Noir Reads, book podcasts like @ProBookNerds, book recommendation websites and bloggers, book review magazines, and independent book publishers and distributors. And more! It’s an incredible list!
See both lists as they automatically update below.
