CLMP at Winter Institute, Press Fest, and Desert Nights, Rising Stars


Montana at Winter Institute ABA CLMP 2018

 

CLMP attended the American Bookseller’s Association’s Winter Institute, held January 22 to 25 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was an amazing four days of advocating for small presses, and we were especially grateful to meet with so many booksellers interested in our members’ books. Part of our mission is to encourage booksellers and small presses to form mutually beneficial relationships and to ensure independent bookstores stock their shelves with the important books our members are putting out into the world.
