last updated September, 2004
The Feminist Bookstore Network is a collaboration among feminist booksellers across the United States and Canada.
Feminist bookstores showcase the most exciting books by, about and for women - books about our lives, our changes, and our challenges. We know that having a strong and vibrant literature of women has a tremendous impact on our lives and on our ability to make needed change. We keep women's literature on the national agenda and, unlike our imitators, feminist bookstores celebrate women's lives and literature every day - not just when it's trendy or profitable to do so.
For more history about the Feminist Bookstore Network and movement, we recommend Keep Women In Print, by Dr. Rose Norman who did extensive interviews with feminist booksellers.
ATTN: Marketing & Publicity -- Our up-to-date version of the mailing list is available for purchase. For more information, please contact Suzanne Corson at Boadecia's Books.
