Keri-Rae Barnum is the Executive Director of New Shelves Books, one of the largest book sales and marketing content providers in the US. A sought-after publishing expert, Keri works with both traditional and indie press authors on creative marketing campaigns to achieve their goals.
She is a trusted authority in book marketing, speaking to numerous writing and publishing groups each year. Some of her favorite conference collaborations have been with IBPA, Future in Publishing, Women in Publishing, Crime Bake and Moonlight & Magnolias.
Her career has been largely focused on working with bookstores and libraries as well as digital and Print On Demand platforms.
