BookTour.com — CaliforniaAuthors’ event-search partner — announces a new relationship with IndieBound.org, one that means that you’ll have even more events to choose from when you use our new CaliforniaAuthors events search. From BookTour’s blog:

It was always our intention with BookTour to represent the breath of author-related events throughout the world. A major part of that task was events at neighborhood and homegrown bookstores. Except the trouble is neighborhood bookstores are all different (that’s what makes them great). That made it hard to dump all their data into our hoppers in one go.

Until now. Thanks to some hard work and amiability on both our parts, Booktour is proud to announce a partnership with IndieBound, the nation’s largest representative of independent booksellers. Now, throughout Booktour, events taking place at IndieBound-represented bookstores will be added automatically to our database.

Congrats to you BookTour and IndieBound and to us at CaliforniaAuthors! Your partnership makes us all more useful to our readers.
