Local Author’s Are Welcome at Hagaman! (Local Author’s Policy)

The Hagaman Memorial Library is pleased to offer opportunities for local writers to showcase their latest publication(s) and connect with library visitors. The Local Author’s program allows authors to schedule a three hour period during which they can showcase and sell their publication(s) at a table within the library to be placed in a central location to ensure the most visitors. Hagaman Memorial Library will publicize an author’s appearance and will make the author’s publication(s) available in the circulating collection provided that the publication(s) meets the Library’s Materials Selection and Access Policy, which is listed below. East Haven authors will be given first priority.

If you are a local author and would like to schedule a day and time to showcase your book(s) at the library, please fill out the Local Author’s Submission Application which is attached to our Local Author’s Policy in the link below. Once you complete the application, you may scan and email it to Cynthia, Community Services Librarian, or mail it to:
