Description
Bookstores and booksellers from historically marginalized communities often already have deep-rooted community engagement and support. This session will explore how you can leverage existing community support into financial stability, feel empowered to secure resources, and keep your community-centric endeavors thriving, all while still balancing your mission.
While everyone is welcome to attend this session, please note that this session is designed to expand beyond surface-level discussion of how to build community.
