Are you ready to join thousands of book lovers this Saturday, April 24 for Canadian Independent Bookstore Day (CIBD)? We are! CIBD is an annual celebration when the industry and readers come together to celebrate and show their support to Canadian independent bookstores.
Here are some ways in which you can take part in the celebration:
Have you been eyeing some great books? Buy them from your local indie bookstore! Find a participating bookstore in your area and you’ll have a chance at winning some wonderful prizes in a contest organized by the Canadian Independent Booksellers Association (CIBA). More info on the contest can be found here.
Have lots of books on your #TBR pile and don’t want to buy any new books just yet? Amplify the marketing efforts of your favourite indie bookstores by liking, retweeting, sharing their posts on your social media platform, and keep an eye on the hashtag #CIBD2021.
Have the opportunity to spread the word about CIBD? Do so! Let friends, colleagues, and family members know that their opportunity to show some love to their favourite indie bookstores is around the corner.
Indie booksellers are a key part of our communities, they champion the work of BIPOC, LGBTQ2S+, and local authors, and this is your opportunity to show your support and say thank you!
