Watchung Booksellers Launches Teen Advisory Board

“Publishers have so far responded well to the initiative, offering to send ARCs, and Scholastic has considered hosting a visit to its headquarters in nearby Manhattan, Freed reported. To help raise awareness of the group and attract prospective members, Freed has sent out e-mails and Facebook messages, and reached out to local high school teachers. The teen advisory board is a first for Watchung Booksellers, although the store has hosted family book clubs, parent and child readings and book groups for adults.”
