Bowker's Manuscript Submission Service

IBPA is partnering with Bowker to bring a new no-cost service to our members.

Bowker's Manuscript Submission Service is a new online tool providing you with an efficient channel for reviewing unsolicited manuscripts.

There is no cost for publishers, and for IBPA members only Bowker has waived the requirement for a minimum number of titles in print to participate.

This new service allows publishers and/or acquisition editors access to clearly identify ideas they find most interesting and marketable. Each proposal includes subject category, topic, the writer's background and publishing history, a book synopsis, and writing sample allowing you easy access for filtering and targeting relevant manuscripts to your publishing needs.

Additional information can be found at the FAQ page.

Please NOTE that this service is free to publishers who wish to view manuscripts on the site.
If you wish to submit a manuscript, you may access that program (fees apply) here.
