LOS ANGELES, January 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

LibraryBub is delighted to assist librarians with the process of identifying high-quality books from the independent publishing sector.  This month's selection of outstanding titles by self-publishing authors is revealed below. Included among them are many that have received awards within the sector. Several of them are already Amazon best sellers in their categories.

LibraryBub CEO, Alinka Rutkowska, is equally captivated and surprised by the fascinating variety of interesting books, both fiction and non-fiction, that she sees every month. Writing in 2002, Andy Barnett commented that with "over 50,000 books published each year in the United States… librarians… using their professional judgement... select the best and most appropriate of these for their community". Today, with more than 700,000 self-published books appearing in the United States every year, the challenge for librarians is immense. Alinka says she sees it as "both a privilege and a responsibility to provide librarians with a means of pinpointing certain books that are particularly appropriate for their communities of readers".
