CCBC Directory of Wisconsin Children's Book Creators

About the Directory

The CCBC Directory of Wisconsin Children’s Book Creators is a voluntary listing of authors and artists living in the state of Wisconsin who are willing to make classroom, school, and/or library appearances. Earlier editions of this CCBC Directory were available in print form. This online edition was made possible with funding from the Wisconsin Educational Media Association, and the Youth Services Section and Wisconsin Association of School Librarians of the Wisconsin Library Association.

Requirements

To be included in the CCBC Directory, you must be a book creator currently living in Wisconsin, you must have at least one published book for children and/or teenagers, and you must be willing to provide information online about the program(s) you provide. You must also provide a way for interested librarians and teachers to get in touch with you (e.g., e-mail, phone number, and/or address; or the name/address/contact information of your agent or publishing representative).

You do not need to complete the form in one sitting. However, you may wish to have the following handy:

  • Your contact information (your own, or that of your agent or publisher representative)

  • Your connection to Wisconsin (e.g., communities where you have lived; Wisconsin colleges/university you attended)

  • Publication information on up to 10 of your books

  • Awards or best-of-the-year distinctions that your book(s) have received (up to four)

  • Description(s) of the program(s) you provide.

  • Your fee

    • Begin

    Please follow the instructions below to begin, and then complete the submission form that follows. Upon completion, you must submit your information to a CCBC staff member for review. Your entry will become part of the online directory after the CCBC staff member verifies and posts it.

    If you have questions about any part of this process or the form, or cannot remember your password, contact Megan Schliesman, 608-262-9503.

    Note: While you will be able to update your information, please keep in mind that each time your information will have to be reviewed by a CCBC Staff member and your directory entry will temporarily be unavailable to the public. During this time you will not be allowed to login and edit your information.
