2027 CALIBA Member Bookstore Map

CALIBA is excited to launch our first-ever CALIBA Member Bookstore Map for Indie Bookstore Day 2027!

The map is a beautifully designed, quality product bookstores can sell at their register to customers who love supporting Independent Bookstores.  These maps are for book lovers looking for epic road trip inspiration! Art and layout done by Works by Abigail, a Bay Area artist, author, and former bookseller! 

The map will feature all CALIBA Bookstore Member stores open and running brick-and-mortar/pop-up locations as of January 1st, 2027. 

Each year, the map will be updated with new stores and unique details. The back of the map will feature the previous year’s Golden Poppy Award Finalists and essays from California authors. 

It is our hope that the bookstore map will be a useful discovery tool for many of our stores AND will become a product your customers will want to collect each Indie Bookstore Day!
