How to use this Page

Just wanted to point out that SCBWI members can log into www.scbwi.org to see a list of publishers with the books their editors have brought to market.  This publication is a useful tool in targeting your manuscript submissions. By providing you with information about each publisher/editor’s tastes and acquisition decisions, this document can help you determine where to submit your manuscripts and/or illustrations.

Listed under each publisher’s or editor’s name are the books they listed as indicative of their preferences, tastes, and sensibilities. Understanding these editors’ tastes can help you better target your submissions—not by duplicating the books on their list, but by learning what types of stories and voices interest them.

Here is an example of what you will find in the Resource Library Tab and Getting Satrted.  If you are not a member you this is a good reason to join.
