ASCD is continually searching for writers with new ideas, fresh voices, and diverse backgrounds.
When educators become authors through ASCD, their knowledge and experience influence a large audience of teachers and administrators. If your book is published, you'll make a contribution to the profession and earn royalty payments as compensation for your work.
Explore the many reasons why you should publish with ASCD
The reviewers weigh many factors, including the appeal of the topic to ASCD's audience, the expertise of the author(s), and how the proposed book would fit into our existing lineup of publications.
Discover the top five qualities we look for in ASCD books
If you would like ASCD to consider publishing a book you have written or plan to write, send us a proposal and two or three sample chapters.
Check out what to include in your proposal
Go to ASCD's submissions system
Your proposal and sample chapters will be reviewed by our Book Acquisitions Team, which meets at the end of each month. We will also send your review to at least two outside reviewers (educators in the field). The review process takes about two months, and we will inform you of the outcome as soon as possible. Please let us know if another publisher is reviewing your proposal during this interval.
If the reviewers recommend publication, we will send you a draft contract for your review.
We look forward to receiving your proposal. If you would like to discuss your topic with us or if you have more questions about assembling your proposal, please contact acquisitions@ascd.org.
