Supporting indie bookshops matters, so in 2020 we made a bookshop map 🗺️ 📍Search by location ✅ Filter by ownership, including API, Author, Black, Disabled, Indigenous, Latine, LGBTQIA+, Neurodivergent, SWANA, Veteran, & Woman-Owned 🔎 Explore physical, online, mobile, & pop-up stores libro.fm/indies

Uhhh, hi! It's me, Bookshop.org, a place to buy books online where every purchase financially supports indie bookstores instead of some billionaire.

A 3 today. That's pretty good for me lately #visibleapp

Q2 has anything surprised you that can raise your heart rate? What sorts of things do, if you want to share? #visibleappchat #visibleapp #mecfs #longcovid #pots #spoonie #chronicillness #chroniclife

In my quest to re-evaluate my relationship with certain corporations which don’t share my values, today I ditched Audible in favor of @librofm.bsky.social. Same book-a-month plan, similar pricing, but now part of what I spend goes to a local bookshop that I know and appreciate. My ❤️ feels lighter

Many new friends here (thanks @maggietokudahall.bsky.social ❤️) so here's an intro! We are an alternative to Amazon-owned Audible that shares all profits with indie bookshops across the globe. Plus: ❤️Employee-owned Social Purpose Corporation 🚫Booksellers drive our recommendations—not algos!

@weneeddiversebooks.bsky.social is providing emergency grants to BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, &/or disabled authors, illustrators, educators, & more in LA impacted by the wildfires ❤️ From now through February, donate $15 or more to their Emergency Grants and you’ll receive a free Libro.fm audiobook credit.
