Welcome

Since 2001, Book Organizations of Colorado (BOOC) has been connecting Colorado's book community. Our member groups include nearly 30 nonprofit organizations whose activities support literacy, libraries, writing, publishing, selling or promoting books for the mutual benefit of members and the general public. See our Book News page for a listing of local events.

Take our survey

Book Organizations of Colorado wants your help in spreading the word about its Find An Author project. Find An Author connects authors with organizations looking for speakers. The site provides a user-friendly list of more than 300 Colorado authors interested in presenting programs.

We recently surveyed our authors to get their feedback about how the site is working from their perspective. Now, we want to ask people who might be interested in using the service (teachers, librarians, civic groups, etc.) how this service is working and how we might let more people know about it.

Please take a few moments to complete our survey.
