JBC Net­work Registration 

We’re so excit­ed for you to be part of the JBC Net­work! Before begin­ning reg­is­tra­tion, please see the bot­tom of this page for instruc­tions and tips. Please also be sure to read the full guide­lines for the pro­gram on the pre­vi­ous page before registering.

Instruc­tions for Authors and Publishers

• Please set up a login using your email and a pass­word you can eas­i­ly remem­ber under the green ​“Reg­is­ter” but­ton and pro­ceed to the Author appli­ca­tion. (Pub­li­cists sub­mit­ting appli­ca­tions for mul­ti­ple authors: please set up a reg­is­tra­tion account under your own email and add as many appli­ca­tions as you need by click­ing the blue + ADD ANOTH­ER REG­IS­TRANT but­ton on your user Dash­board.) Please work with your author for all con­tent sub­mit­ted because there will be no changes accept­ed after submission.
• Reg­is­tra­tion will not be con­sid­ered com­plete until all required infor­ma­tion and mate­ri­als are sub­mit­ted, but the form will auto­mat­i­cal­ly save your input if you are unable to com­plete the form and need to return to it lat­er. If you’re hav­ing trou­ble upload­ing files into the appli­ca­tion, please send them to evie@​jewishbooks.​org as an attach­ment — with the author’s name indi­cat­ed in the sub­ject or body of the email.
• To re-access an author’s appli­ca­tion, return to the reg­is­tra­tion form and select the grey ​“Login” but­ton if you are not auto­mat­i­cal­ly signed in. (Your login is the email address and pass­word you ini­tial­ly entered to set up your reg­is­tra­tion — there is a but­ton on the page to have your pass­word reis­sued if you need.) Find the author’s name under the white sec­tion labeled ​“Reg­is­trants” on the left side of your Dash­board. Hov­er over the progress bar next to the registrant’s name and a drop-down menu will appear; select ​“Author” and it will take you back to that author’s form. (Not the progress bar for ​“My Appli­ca­tion”: the bar you want appears under the blue +ADD ANOTH­ER REG­IS­TRANT but­ton fur­ther down.) Please make sure all required fields and uploads are sub­mit­ted accord­ing to the dead­lines list­ed in the 2020 – 2021 guide­lines for author participation.
• Once reg­is­tra­tion is com­plet­ed, there will be no edit­ing. Click the file below under Down­load­able Resources to see an exam­ple PDF of the Author form. Please read tips and sug­ges­tions pri­or to sub­mit­ting your form.
• Click the file below under Down­load­able Resources to see an exam­ple of a past author blurbs, and some tips on how to best show­case your book.

Instruc­tions for Event Coordinators

• Please set up a login using your email. Once you have com­plet­ed the mem­ber­ship form, you will be tak­en to the Reg­pack user dash­board, where you will find a blue but­ton in the upper right hand cor­ner to + ADD ANOTH­ER REGISTRANT.
• If you plan to attend the 2020 JBC Net­work Con­fer­ence (held May 19 – 21 in New York City), please click the ​“Con­fer­ence” but­ton to reg­is­ter each attend­ing del­e­gate from your orga­ni­za­tion. All reg­is­tran­t’s fees must be paid by net­work sites by check or cred­it card.
• As a reminder: Con­fer­ence reg­is­tra­tion is not com­plete until your organization’s JBC Net­work mem­ber­ship reg­is­tra­tion is com­plete and dues are paid in full. Each attend­ing site must reg­is­ter one Lead Staff par­tic­i­pant in order to send sec­ondary staff or lay lead­ers to the JBC Net­work Con­fer­ence. You can check out with your Mem­ber­ship and Con­fer­ence pay­ments at the same time or indi­vid­u­al­ly. Author books are includ­ed with reg­is­tra­tion of lead staff per­son. (Please note, if you are not attend­ing the con­fer­ence, a set of author books are avail­able for Net­work sites for an addi­tion­al fee that can be pur­chased on the con­fer­ence reg­is­tra­tion form.)
• If addi­tion­al staff and/​or lay lead­ers from your orga­ni­za­tion are reg­is­ter­ing for the 2020 JBC Net­work Con­fer­ence, they MUST use the same login infor­ma­tion. Go to the + ADD ANOTH­ER REG­IS­TRANT but­ton on the Reg­pack dash­board, and com­plete the ​“Con­fer­ence” form accord­ing to pre­ferred par­tic­i­pa­tion. (The sys­tem should auto­mat­i­cal­ly account for the dis­counts offered for large lay leader groups as out­lined in the 2020 – 2021 JBC Net­work Mem­ber Site Guide­lines — so long as they are logged into the sys­tem cor­rect­ly!) ​“Rogue” reg­is­tra­tions will not be rec­og­nized; please make sure that your entire team reg­is­ters under one user login. All pay­ments must be made by the Net­work site. No indi­vid­ual lay leader pay­ments will be accepted.

For any ques­tions or con­cerns regard­ing the reg­is­tra­tion process, please con­tact Evie Saphire-Bern­stein at evie@​jewishbooks.​org.
