WHAT IS THE BOOKSELLERS' LIST?

The Booksellers’ List, is an exciting, new, collective marketing program that will shine a spotlight on the books our members believe should be elevated in the market.

The program will be Canada’s version of similar programs hosted by our international counterparts – like the American Booksellers Association’s Indie Next List and the UK Booksellers Association’s Indie Book of the Month program. 

Each publishing season, twenty books will be selected for promotion as part of The Booksellers’ List, via votes from CIBA bookseller members across the county. In a time of shrinking book media we can use our collective strength to ensure readers have a new way to discover a diverse range of books, recommended by Canadians for Canadians.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

Our first public list will launch on September 1, 2025. Voting for the fall list will open May 12, 2025 and close July 7, 2025.
