Inventory Submission Form
Congratulations on publishing your book!  As booksellers, we understand the commitment, both in time and resources, that it took to get your book into the hands of readers everywhere.  Thank you so much for your interest in selling your books at The Bottom.

This form is a request for The Bottom to carry completed physical copies of your book in our store.  Our preferred method is ordering your title directly from a national distributor such as Ingram Books. It allows us to streamline the process and be most responsive to our customer needs.  We will contact you directly to procure your book if needed.  Please be patient with us. We will review each inventory submission as your work is very important to us but kindly ask that you do not submit this form more than once in six months. Please complete all fields.

*Please note: The Bottom does not have the ability to offer books on consignment. We must be able to purchase your book at a wholesale price to carry it in our space. We do not purchase books published on Amazon.

This form is NOT for author events.  If interested in hosting an in-store appearance, please inquire about space rentals by visiting: https://www.thebottomknox.com/our-space

Thank you again for contacting The Bottom!

We use this information for consideration, but it's not the only thing we will consider. Authors who have cultivated a following, whether online or in-person, help impact the overall sale of a book. It is the author's responsibility to inform their audience that the book is now available to purchase at The Bottom. Your promotion assists tremendously with those book sales.
