Simon & Schuster Online Book Readings, effective as of July 1, 2024.

(These guidelines apply to the US only.)
 
Dear Educators, Librarians, and Booksellers:
 
Simon & Schuster is pleased to provide resources for virtual storytimes and online learning. Please visit The Book Pantry website for reading group and teaching guides, author studies, and more at The Book Pantry.
 
We will permit you to livestream and post video-recorded readings of Simon & Schuster books (but not any pre-recorded audiobook product or audio-only reading) online for your students and customers, subject to the following. By posting a reading, you are agreeing to these terms:
 
1. At the beginning of your video, please state that you are reading the book “with permission from Simon & Schuster.”
 
2. We ask that you post your reading within the confines of your school, library, or store's platform or another closed group with limited access for your students and customers. You may not monetize the livestream or recordings on any platform.
 
3. For these younger board book & picture book formats, it is fine to read the entire book. For chapter books and novels, the readings should be limited to a few chapters.
 
4. If you are an educator, librarian or bookseller, please complete the permission form below for our records.

 

Sincerely,

Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing
