Solid State Books is happy to announce our participation in the 10th Anniversary of Independent Bookstore Day! Follow us on Instagram to see the special merchandise that will be available and details of the Libro.Fm sale & membership offer

Independent Bookstore Day (IBD) was established in 2013 to promote, celebrate, and highlight the value of the Independent bookstore community. The day has been observed on the last Saturday of April every year since 2013. This year there are over 900 stores participating  across the country.

Independent Bookstore Day is organized by the American Booksellers Association, a national not-for-profit trade organization, that 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.

Another way to show your support is to participate in Independent Bookstore Day Spirit Week. We’d love to see photos of you celebrating your bookish spirit.
