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
We’re a woman-owned indie bookstore specializing in fun, fresh, and wildly readable fiction. While we carry all the major genres—romance, mystery, sci-fi, memoirs, and more—we have a soft spot for popular fiction that’s perfect for book clubs, beach bags, and binge-reading weekends. We are located in the heart of historic Downtown Overland Park, KS.
