This episode features a conversation with Angela Bole, the current CEO of the Independent Book Publishers Association, about the role of independent publishing and the work of IBPA in that community. Angela's background is deeply rooted in publishing. She worked in a bookstore in college, then went on to complete the New York University graduate program in Book Publishing. After that she worked for the Book Industry Study Group before taking on her current role as CEO of IBPA 9 years ago.
IBPA's mission is "to lead and serve independent publishers through advocacy, education, and tools for success," and the association serves that mission by developing and advocating for professional publishing standards, educating independent publishers about the publishing industry via webinars and their awesome Publishing University conference , and providing access to discounts on tools and resources.
