2. Check your SIBA account

This week SIBA announced the organization's new logo -- the first phase of an extensive rebranding and upgrading campaign. The next phase involves upgrading SIBA's member database: a process that will happen in September and October. It is important that member info be as up to date and accurate as possible, so please take a moment to log in to your account and confirm that your info is accurate, and as complete as possible.

3. Sign up your staff

Get your staff engaged in SIBA programming. SIBA has many resources for frontline bookseller development, and there is no extra fee for adding staff to your account. Send the names and emails of any staff you want linked to your store account to Candice Huber at candice@sibaweb.com.

4. Send SIBA a Spark

"SIBA Spark" focuses on uplifting and inspiring news from members of the SIBA community fighting the good fight! SIBA will share bookstore projects and initiatives with the industry and readers. Tell us what your store is doing.
