 Dear Booksellers,

A quick update: I wanted to let you know that ABA has completed an initial investigation of the recent bestseller list and box mailing incidents. We're spending three weeks talking with members, evaluating our systems, and developing a response plan. Thank you to those who responded to my email to members last week and those who have offered input. I'll be following up with more details soon.  —ABA CEO Allison Hill
