If you're a concerned citizen, please support independent booksellers. They are navigating uncertainty right now and could use your help!
Recent changes to U.S. trade policies are affecting the book trade. The IOBA Board of Directors penned this letter reflecting our concerns. It was sent to U.S. Congress and Senate Committees.
If you're an independent online bookseller, consider joining us. With a larger membership, we have a louder voice to advocate for better policies for the trade.
