ABA members have less than two weeks left to nominate candidates to serve on the American Booksellers Association’s Board of Directors. Nominations can be sent to Nominating Committee, chaired by Sarah Bagby of Watermark Books in Wichita, Kansas, via an electronic or print nomination form by the October 31 deadline.

A candidate for the Board must be an ABA member who is the owner or employee of an independent bookstore with a storefront location that is operated according to sound business principles. In addition, a candidate must have at least three years of recent experience as the owner or employee of a member company. Complete qualifications are outlined in the “ABA Nomination and Election Guidelines.”

The Nominating Committee requests that as much information as possible be provided about candidates. All information will be kept confidential.
