Next Meeting: Tuesday, March 24, 2026, 10AM-12PM @ Fremont Public Library

March is our annual IN-PERSON/HYBRID meeting. Our presentation will be on "What's New in YA," with presentations on readers' advisory and highly anticipated YA for 2026. We'll also have our annual $1 book sale. All sellable books are $1 each and ARCs/Galleys are FREE for the taking. All proceeds go to fund BAYA awards, operations, and future grants. Remember to bring boxes to load up for Summer and/or your Collections! PayPal/credit card, checks, and cash payments accepted.

Not able to attend in person but still want the dish on What's New in YA? We'll have a hybrid option through Zoom. Curious about still receiving books from BAYA? Email us and we can discuss custom book bundles, normal fees apply + media shipping costs.

Members will receive a reminder email with Zoom link. Non-Members wishing to join please send an email to the contact below.
