A Year of Reading with SIBA

Through SIBA’s B3! Book Club 2018 selections and recommendations from a EUREKAsiba presentation by Jill Hendrix, owner of Fiction Addiction in Greenville, SC, we’ve compiled a great list of books to help you, your staff, and your bookstore improve your business and morale. From assessing how you look at “profit” and your budget, to the timing of meetings and scheduling of staff, to coming up with creative ways to change-up bookstore events to put the emphasis back on meaningful purpose--this list has it all.

Want to make reading and discussing books that will help your business a priority? Then join SIBA’s B3! Book Club and resolve to read with us in 2019! We communicate via facebook and  read and discuss a book via zoom every other month. Meeting with other booksellers and sharing ideas and challenges is a big part of the fun. Email lindamarie@sibaweb.com to join. Our first book for 2019 is #Chill: Turn off Your Job and Turn on Your Life (William Morrow) by Bryan E. Robinson, with a date TBA soon!
