PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 16, 2009 -
This January the American Booksellers Association (ABA), a not-for-profit industry association established to promote independent bookstores in the United States and Canada, welcomed Tower.com as a bookseller member.  

The ABA and its members promote freedom of speech, literacy, and national reading programs.  The Association also serves to protect the interests of independent booksellers from sales, positioning and publisher competition from mega-chains and nationwide web retailers.  

Tower.com, an independently owned online retailer, operates as the continuation of the former Tower Records retail empire, which included music, video and book chains.  Tower Books online now carries over 1 million new and hard-to-find book titles from publishers around the world.  

Through including Tower.com among its members, The American Booksellers Association offers non-store front retailers like Tower.com a place within the Independent book community.  

“We consider ourselves to be a hybrid bookseller,” says Sabrina Miller, Marketing Manager for Tower.com and a former independent bookseller. “We may operate a global book business, but our approach is grassroots and independent at its core.  We are very pleased to have been recognized by our fellow booksellers and members of the ABA.”
