Discover new books and connect with other readers, online.
What is Edelweiss Community?
This mobile-friendly site isn’t meant to be a replacement for Edelweiss but rather a simpler interface for book lovers without some of the B2B professional features found in Edelweiss. Here, users can join unique Communities, or groups of users with similar reading interests, or book professional groups (ABA, Barnes & Noble, LibraryReads).
You might use it instead of or in addition to Edelweiss.
We're continuing to develop and improve Edelweiss Community based on user feedback! Send us questions or ideas by clicking the Feedback button in the bottom right within Edelweiss Community.
