Using The Bram Stoker Awards and Hoopla Digital

 

The 2024 Bram Stoker Awards were awarded in Stamford, Connecticut on June 14, 2025. While your current collection may not yet have all of the titles awarded a Stoker, if your library has Hoopla Digital, you can create a social media post, online booklist, or book display with QR codes linking to your Hoopla Instant collection. These titles will only be paid for if a patron checks them out. It also gives you a chance to show the depth of your digital collection. 

Create a separate post, list, or display with links to the winning titles you own digitally and physically. The point is that if you have pay-per-use services like Hoopla Digital, you can use awards like the Stokers to promote your collection and provide passive readers advisory even if you don't own everything you would like. 

I listed these in two ways- linking to the titles and linking to a preselected search page with instant and the authors name selected. Some of the winning titles are available via instant checkout and some not.
