Author Submissions

Regina Public Library collects materials in a wide range of formats for the information, education, enrichment and recreation of all members of the community.

Thank you for your interest in helping us grow our collections.

When choosing materials for inclusion in RPL's collections the Collections Unit uses reviewing and selection tools, including:

  • Consultations with branch staff
  • Assessment of Publishers' catalogues and public input
  • Review of interlibrary loans and circulation records, and other standard processes
  • The RPL Collection Policy

Author Submissions

If you have a title that you'd like considered for Regina Public Library's collections, please provide as much of the following information as possible:

  • Your name and email address
  • The author or creator's name
  • The title of the item
  • The producer or publisher of the work
  • ISBN or other standard number
  • Date of publication
  • Price
  • Subject matter and intended audience
  • Any published reviews

These details as well as any additional, relevant information should be sent to: authors@reginalibrary.ca.

The information you submit will be used to determine if your author submission will be added to our collection.

While we'd love to reply to each request individually, we aren't able to because of the high volume and variety of requests we receive. If you are interested in seeing what we have added to our Collection, please check out our online catalogue!

The information you submit to us is all we need to make an informed selection, so please don't deliver or send us a review copy of the material. It won't be added to our collection, and it won't improve the chances of your suggestion being selected.

All unsolicited books, CDs and other items we receive are treated as donated materials: they may be included in the library's book sale, donated to charities, or recycled, in accordance with RPL's Collections Policy.

The library is not obligated to inform donors about the disposition of their donations.
