To purchase the exclusives and be included on the searchable map, sign ups are open October 11–November 8, 2024. You must purchase a minimum of 20 items (individually or bulk packaged — a bulk packaged item counts as one) in order to receive the freebies like bookmarks and stickers.Blackwing pencils and T-shirts do not count towards the 20-item minimum. To only be included on the searchable map without any purchases, sign-ups are open October 11, 2024–March 31, 2025.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Now that you have received your individualized ABACUS report, let's discuss your ABACUS data results in detail with ABA Chief Financial Officer PK Sindwani (a former bookseller), including the key takeaways, how to identify opportunities for improving your store's profitability, and ways you can use ABACUS in your advocacy efforts for your store.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Booksellers and bookstore owners who identify as a member of the Disability community are invited to gather for connection, support, community, resources, and networking. The term disability includes but is not limited to physical, sensory, cognitive, intellectual, or developmental disabilities, chronic conditions, and mental illnesses. If you are currently in the process of exploring your identity and relationship with the disabled community, please do not self-reject. You are welcome.

Booksellers interested in attending should visit their Member Dashboard and join through the Email Subscriptions tab. Meeting details are emailed the morning of each meeting; if you are joining for the first time, please be sure to join the email list at least twenty-four hours beforehand. Don't have a login? Request one here.

While allies are greatly appreciated, these closed sessions are available only for individuals who identify as members of these communities, and those who do not identify as disabled should not plan to attend.
