Northwestern Alumni Association (NAA) proudly highlights alumni authors through the Alumni Authors CATalogue, an online director celebrating the creative and scholarly work of Wildcats. We are currently refreshing our website and, as a result, will not be updating the CATalogue at this time; please note that some listings may be out of date. To make updates to an existing entry, email naainfo@northwestern.edu.
We ask that alumni authors submit their own books for consideration. Alumni are also encouraged to spread the word and invite other alumni authors to submit their work directly.
The following criteria is referenced when considering authors/books for inclusion in the Alumni Authors CATalogue:
Alumni-authored: a book written by someone who has completed at least one credit towards a degree-granting program. At this time, we are unable to list those who have completed a certificate through Northwestern
Submitted by an alumni author
Includes a 13-digit ISBN
Note: The NAA reserves the right to include or omit submitted books at its discretion.
