Who We Are
Mission: To foster an appreciation for and access to books for all.
The Ann Arbor Book Society grew out of a desire to connect the public with independent bookstores and to celebrate the community that supports them. But it quickly became apparent that the presses and the writers and the readers and the libraries and the literacy organizations rooted in this community were all vital parts of this ecosystem—and that we had a lot to celebrate.
What We Do
The Ann Arbor Book Society connects local readers through a monthly email newsletter featuring book reviews from local book experts, articles on local book-related events and organizations, history of books in Ann Arbor, and other book-related information interesting to local readers. We host a website with an inclusive calendar of book events and pages devoted to interviews, photos, and store information of Ann Arbor’s independent bookstores and other book-related organizations and institutions. We are developing our website to include more regular content to become the go-to place for all book-related news in Ann Arbor. We also distribute “Booktown Maps” featuring the location of all of Ann Arbor’s independent bookstores and other locally-run businesses and organizations where books can be found.
