BIRMINGHAM, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Books-A-Million is launching a new ‘Talk to a Bookseller’ service to help guests curate their reading lists.

Books-A-Million has category specific experts waiting to offer suggestions and have conversations about what they love using this new program.
“We miss our customers, and our new ‘Talk to a Bookseller’ service is meant to keep that person-to-person connection intact while many of our stores are closed,” said Scott Kappler, Chief Marketing Officer. “The communities we serve have come to rely on our in-store category experts, and this new service is just a small way for us to stay accessible to our guests and discuss what’s important to them – books.”
