Director, Technical Services Department
Queens Library
Mary Catherine Little

"As the country's highest circulating library, current and accurate industry knowledge is essential. Membership that offers my library a voice at BISG's table benefits libraries in a way nothing else can."

Vice President, Adult Trade Merchandising
Barnes & Noble
Joseph Gonnella

"Barnes & Noble has long been a supporter of BISG because of its many contributions to the publishing and bookselling industries. BISG has worked with its members to help create the standards, policies, and best practices that have increased efficiencies and benefited all of us."

Chairman
Ingram Content Group
John Ingram

"As a corporation in the middle of the supply chain, serving publishers, retailers, and libraries around the world, Ingram finds the standards developed under the auspices of BISG and its committees invaluable. In a business which is incredibly complex at its core, the development of standards for use by trading partners is critical to maximizing our resources in the development of trading partner exchanges. The BISG website and educational seminars are also valuable for 'getting the message out' to the thousands of firms that are the book industry. Ingram is a long time supporter and activist in BISG committees and other efforts and we look forward to supporting the organization for years to come."

Speaking for the 3500 members of the Independent Book Publishers Association, I know that we all look to BISG as the premiere authority when it comes to research and application of book industry standards."
