鈥淏ookselling is a cultural and political expression, an expression of progressive change, of challenge to oppressive authority, of a search for a community of values which can act as an underpinning of a better world. The true profit in bookselling is the social profit; the bottom line, the measure of the impact of the books on the community.鈥&苍产蝉辫;鈥
We at av福利社 share a commitment to social profit and an underpinning belief that books do make for a better world. As we approach the end of a year unlike any other, we鈥檙e giving thanks for the bookselling community which continues, every day of the year and recently in the face of incredible challenges, to serve as a guiding light, ushering books and ideas out into a community of readers.
