Submission Guidelines for Book Writers

We encourage writers to send a query letter outlining a proposed book before sending a complete manuscript. Your query should include an abstract or brief description of the project, table of contents and description of your intended audience. Please also include some background on the author(s), including his/her qualification as an expert on the given subject, as well as a timeline for completion of the manuscript.

You may send your proposal to bookseditor@aam-us.org or Books Editor, American Association of Museums, 1575 Eye St. NW, Suite 400, Washington, DC 20005.
