National Year of Reading 2026

To celebrate the National Year of Reading, Ingram has partnered with the Independent Publishers Guild (IPG) to offer members the opportunity to showcase titles to the 40,000 retailers and libraries that Ingram connects with globally. IPG member publishers can select titles for promotion through Ingram’s in-house ordering platform, ipage®, as well as within our seasonal bookseller email campaigns

We are inviting all independent publishers to nominate five key titles:

• Five Titles Only: Select your best releases for 2026 or evergreen titles you want to promote.

• Trade Discovery: Your titles will be featured on a dedicated landing page (https://lp.ingramcontent.com/retailers/national-year-of-reading), which retailers will see  

• Newsletter Promotion: A banner linking to the landing page will be featured in our weekly newsletter, sent to all our retailers.

Key Information:

To make this opportunity available to booksellers purchasing from Ingram internationally, titles must be available through Ingram via your Print on Demand (POD) account.

Why Participate?

• Extra Visibility: We will highlight your titles with thousands of booksellers who order from Ingram daily

• Zero Cost: Participation is completely free for independent publishers.

Key Dates and Terms

• Deadline: Nominations are open now — complete your submission by the end of May 2026.

• Promotion Goes Live: 1st July 2026.

• Right to Modify: Ingram Content Group UK and the IPG reserve the right to modify, suspend, or cancel this promotional and its terms at any time, with or without prior notice.
