Dear Social Media Ambassadors,

It’s that time of year again… #LiteraryMarchMadness time! While the sports world follows college basketball’s March Madness, the library world follows Literary March Madness where sixteen books battle it out in a no-holds-barred, single-elimination tournament to crown a Grand Champion! This year, in honor of Women’s History Month, we’re pitting eight novels against eight nonfiction titles all written by women. That's sixteen books, two weeks and one ultimate champion.

How to join in on the fun:

• Vote! Starting March 16, check out the Library's Instagram, Facebook or Twitter and vote by commenting on which book should move on to the next round.
• Spread the word! Use the hashtags #LiteraryMarchMadness, #WomensMarchMadness and #APLambassador to get the word out and invite others to vote on your favorite social media platforms.

And just for you, our lovely Social Media Ambassadors, we have a sneak preview of our #WomensMarchMadness bracket (just tap, save and share). We hope you’ll cast your votes starting March 16 and help us crown our fourth annual Literary March Madness winner!
