Why should you join myFAPA.org?

The FAPA President’s Book Awards is open to authors and publishers nationwide and recognizes book publishing excellence and creativity in design, content, and production for North American authors and publishers.

IBPA Affiliate Scholarship Program

Our affiliate, Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA), generously offers FAPA members the opportunity to apply for a scholarship to its annual Publishing University. The scholarship details vary each year, but generally cover tuition for the full, two-day Publishing University.

Networking

One of the greatest benefits of membership in myFAPA.org is connecting and networking with other authors, publishers and service providers. There’s no reason to go it alone in publishing when you’re a member of FAPA. Many members have found that the best membership benefit is the ability to email FAPA Staff with publishing questions. We offer quick, industry-standard answers; when we don’t know the answer, we find someone who does!
