Hi, All, Years ago we had someone take issue with the selling of books during an author visit. The solution at the time now seems cumbersome and I would like to propose a change. Before I get ahead of myself I was hoping to gather information on how other libraries are handling this. Some of the questions I have are: Do you allow authors to sell books onsite, and if so who provides/sells the books? (Does the library provide the books to sell and keep any profit? Do you use your Friends group to sell or invite a local bookstore to sell onsite? Do you ask the author sell their own books onsite with no interaction from the library/FOTL group/bookstore?) Do you treat self-published authors differently? Is this something in a policy, or just the way things are done? Thank you in advance for any and all ideas and advice!
