I am not a Facebook user, but I am able to view it by just clicking on the link and watching without an account.
As you can see there is a lot of good content. I will probably have it playing in the background throughout the day as I work. I have no idea if the panels will be archive, but I will let you know if they are. Update, they are available on the Book Expo Facebook page at the same link to view after.
I am enjoying this because I would have missed the live BEA, so even popping in and out during the day is nice.
LibraryReads is normally a huge part of BEA and this virtual version is no different. Not only are they hosting a Book Buzz as you can see above, but they also recreated their author panel events.
Click here to go over to the Library Reads YouTube channel to see 2 sets of author panels. Each video is actually comprised of Executive Director Rebecca Vnuk interviewing the following:
Video 1Lisa Jewell, INVISIBLE GIRL (Simon & Schuster)Raven Leilani, LUSTER (Macmillan)Emily Levesque, THE LAST STARGAZERS (Sourcebooks)Helen Macdonald, Vesper Flights (Grove Atlantic)Naomi Novik, A DEADLY EDUCATION (Penguin Random House)
Video 2Jennifer Nansabuga Makumbi, A GIRL IS A BODY OF WATER (Tin House, distributed by W.W. Norton)V.E. Schwab, THE INVISIBLE LIFE OF ADDIE LARUE (Tor Books)Brad Thor, NEAR DARK (Simon & Schuster)Bryan Washington, MEMORIAL (Penguin Random House)
You can find a list on Edelweiss for ease in requesting and downloading advance reader copies for all of the available titles featured in these videos. That list is here: https://bit.ly/LibraryReadsBEA20BooksThese videos aren't going anywhere, so you can watch them today, tomorrow, or whenever.
Finally, Library Journal normally hosts their Day of Dialog during BEA. They have also transitioned to a FREE online event which will run live on Thursday AND be recorded and sent out to registered parties to view on demand through August 28th. Click here for details.
I for one am even more excited about this DoD event than about the online BEA content both because I can view it on demand later AND because the DoD panels are always broken up into larger categories. Personally, I am most excited about the SF/F/H panel and the nonfiction panel.
This is a busy week of events, but most of them can be viewed on your own time.
