Subject: Feminist Bookstore Network Catalog Online
FEMINIST BOOKSTORE NETWORK CATALOG AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET
The Feminist Bookstore Network Catalog and Directory is an important new
resource for educators and academics of all genres. 110 feminist bookstores
from the United States and Canada, the members of the Feminist Bookstore
Network, have joined forces to produce this catalog that celebrates the rich
diversity of women’s lives and visions. The books come from a wide variety
of feminist, independent, university, and corporate presses. The Catalog
also includes a directory of the feminist bookstores, along with street and
email addresses, phone and fax numbers, and links to Network stores with
websites. All of this information is in one location:
http://www.FemBookNet.com — a place to learn about exciting new titles,
where to order them, and find new bookstores.
Feminist bookstores keep women’s literature on the national agenda and,
unlike our imitators, feminist bookstores celebrate women’s lives and
literature every day — not just when it’s trendy or profitable to do so.
Feminist bookstores are also a solid, essential, dependable part of feminist
activism and women’s communities, working to create a diverse literature
that reflects all of the people in this culture. They provide a comfortable,
safe place for women to share information and skills, ask questions too
sensitive to ask elsewhere, and find support. This is not the mission of
Amazon.com and Barnesandnoble.com; it does make a difference where you buy
your books!
Feminist bookstores are able to continue to do this important work because
women (and men) go the extra mile to support us. What can you do? Check out
our Web presence and order your books from feminist bookstores. With your
active support, feminist bookstores and feminist publishers will keep
focusing attention on women’s voices that won’t get mainstream attention —
until we’ve given their work a place to stand.
Find the Feminist Bookstore Network Catalog on the Internet at
www.FemBookNet.com, or pick up a free copy of the print version at your

Box 882554, San Francisco, CA, 94188. Please pass this information along as
a resource to your colleagues and students.
