Welcome to MIBA
We are a nonprofit trade association that supports and celebrates locally owned and operated independent bookstores and booksellers throughout a 9+ state portion of the Midwest (Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and Michigan's Upper Peninsula). We work directly with booksellers and the people who do business with them: publishers, wholesalers, distributors, sales reps, and others allied to the book industry.
Member Spotlight
Anchovy Book Co is a tiny yet mighty cookbook store dedicated to empowering homecooks and inspiring St. Louisans to practice hospitality around their tables. We see Anchovy Book Co as more than just a store; it’s a way for us to help grow St. Louis's vibrant food community and foster connections around the shared joy of cooking. At just six feet wide and fifty feet long, our space is snug but curated with intention.
