We are in the "countdown" phase of SIBA's transition! One day next week SIBA members will visit www.sibaweb.com and see not only a new website, but a much more interactive and useful one. By the time SIBA publishes its last newsletter of 2025 next week, we will be broadcasting from the new platform and getting ready for a great new year.

Users may experience intermittent periods of down time as the website servers are changed. SIBA will send out an invitation to members when the new site is live. For security reasons, no login credentials will be preserved, so each member will have to log in with their email address to reset their account password.

Two important things to note:

1. Although people can still join, renew their memberships, reserve promotions, access resources, and submit questions, we advise that members refrain from making non-critical updates to their accounts until the new site is launched. Invoices will be delayed until after the move, but promotions can be reserved and scheduled without interruption.

2. SIBA members whose accounts have expired will receive a renewal prompt on their account when they log in to the new website. This includes bookstores participating in the banner-for-dues program whose banners are not currently active.

If you have any questions about the transition process, contact Nicki Leone.
