The American Booksellers Association, a national not-for-profit trade organization, works with booksellers and industry partners to ensure the success and profitability of independently owned book retailers, and to assist in expanding the community of the book. ABA’s core members are key participants in their communities' local economy and culture, and to assist them ABA provides education and business resources; creates relevant programing and marketing; and engages in public policy, industry, and local first advocacy. A volunteer board of 13 booksellers governs the Association. ABA is headquartered in White Plains, NY.
