IBPA’s core values include Independence and Inclusivity. As a nonprofit association, we are committed to independent points of view and a publishing industry where everyone can tell their story and find themselves in the content they read.

Please note that a listing in this IBPA catalog does not constitute an endorsement of any particular book, author, or publisher by IBPA, its employees, or board members.

IBPA members donate over $2,000 to support Benetech’s efforts to provide equitable opportunities for all learners and readers Welcome to the Fall 2023 IBPA Bookstore Catalog! I am pleased to first introduce you to our newest non-profit partner, Benetech. Founded in 2000, Benetech’s mission is to help make books and reading more accessible to all readers, particularly those with print disabilities. Participating publisher members of the Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA), by placing their titles in this issue of our catalog, have donated a total of $2,080 to Benetech.

Improving accessibility within our industry is a key initiative within IBPA’s diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. As an association, IBPA recognizes that the legacy of book publishing is one of privilege, bias, and exclusion, which has significantly limited the books that make it into the hands of readers and readers’ ability to access them. By supporting organizations like Benetech, we hope to realize a world where every independent publisher has the ability to professionally engage in an inclusive publishing industry, and readers can access books that will enrich their lives.

IBPA members include independent publishers from traditional trade, hybrid, and author-publisher organizations, as well as university presses, nonprofits, and associations. We invite you to explore some of their titles featured in these pages. With more than 150 fiction and nonfiction, children’s, tween, teen, and adult titles, there’s something that will capture the hearts and minds of every reader—including, we hope, your patrons!

“I joined the airline world after serving in the United States Air Force Reserves for nearly 10 years. I had no idea how the airlines worked or how to prepare myself and my family for my new career. This book has been thoughtfully put together and is in an easy to read format that can make even the most complex aspects of an airline career feel easy to understand.

My wife also found this book to be incredibly helpful. It helped her understand the inner workings of an airline career and provided practical tips to implement to create healthy family dynamics within an airline family. I highly recommend this book to any new or aspiring airline pilot or to family members who are trying to understand and support their pilot.”—Kyle Swenson First Officer at a major US airline

IBPA’s second annual Instagram campaign:

Fall Into Indie Books at Indie Bookstores Every day of September 2023 one reader will win $50 to spend at an Indie Bookstore—maybe yours!

In all, 30 readers will win at 30 bookstores across the USA!

Campaign Rules Campaign participants will:

• Post a picture on Instagram of an indie bookstore’s exterior or interior and showcase/feature an indie book/ author to be valid. Creativity is encouraged!

• Set participant accounts to public, not private, so IBPA can view the hashtags and posts. Think literary costumes, funny reels, etc.

• Post on participant Instagram grid, not Instagram story.

Multiple posts by participants are encouraged!

• Tag @ibpalovesindies AND the store, then hashtag #fallintoindiebooks.

IBPA will:

• Pick the 30 winners.

• Notify the winner, the store, and set up the $50 gift certificate with the store manager for the winner to use at that store.
