 PROFILE
The American Booksellers Association (ABA) offers strength in numbers for independent booksellers in a bind over how to battle the superstores. The organization is dedicated to protecting book retailers' interests. For an annual fee, ABA provides its roughly 3,000 members with an annual trade conference, print and online publications, and deals for group insurance. Its members include independent bookstores and chains, university stores, and specialty shops. To help members compete against large Internet booksellers, ABA has launched an online sales network, Booksense.com. Consolidation in the bookstore industry and the rapid growth of chains such as Barnes & Noble have sharply reduced ABA membership.
