I was preparing my 2022 social media calendars this afternoon and it takes time to gather information from multiple sources. It's not a definitive list but you are welcome to use it with book sales & marketing activities.

​If you would like to add to the list or request changes please contact me - I'm interested in national and relevant international events for publishers, booksellers and libraries.

Recommendations

There are few aspects of the publishing industry that Rachael McDiarmid hasn’t thought about in her career in books and publishing. I had the benefit of her insights as a colleague at Frankfurt Book Fair over a number of years, and trusted her to give me advice about our interest in finding meaningful direct contact with libraries and schools, an entirely new area for UWA Publishing. I would have followed up with additional small projects at the time had Rachael not moved into a new position in publishing. Back out in her own right again, I thoroughly recommend her for her insights and intelligent analysis. Rachael is trustworthy and smart, and thus a great asset to those of us working in the publishing trade."
