CBA works for the current and future economic well-being of
booksellers, by promoting their interests and meeting their needs.
The mission reflects the following beliefs held by CBA:
We are united as a bookselling industry in our goals.
The written word has high, lasting value to readers, and
should be respected and nurtured for this reason.
The advancement of literacy and free legal access to all
forms of information, across all borders, is essential.
In working toward this mission, we view our relationship with our other key
stakeholders as follows:
To our customers, we are a resource for entertainment and
for all forms of information.
To writers, we are partners in helping make their books
available to readers.
To publishers/distributors, we are equal partners working to
maintain a viable book trade, and fair trade practices in Canada.
To governments, we are an integral part of the cultural,
educational and retail industries, working to advance literacy, develop successful
bookselling practices and ensure legal access to all forms of information.
To non-book suppliers, we are partners in making their
related products available to our customers.
In working towards this mission, it should be recognized that CBA is a not
for profit organization. Key operating principles are:
To serve booksellers' needs as they arise and to anticipate
and advise on future needs.
To promote active participation by our members, who carry a
responsibility for the outcome of our work.
To assist CBA members in providing superb service to their
individual customers.
To work constructively with all stakeholders in the
industry.
To encourage consistent, ethical, professional and
responsible business practices within the industry.
