Glenn Goldman Scholarships to Winter Institute

Thanks to the generosity of booksellers and publishers, CALIBA is able to offer a scholarship of up to $2,000 to ABA's Winter Institute, February 23-26th, 2025 in Pittsburgh, PA.
The Scholarship will go towards the cost of registration, hotel reservations (up to 5 nights), and travel expenses.

The Glenn Goldman Scholarship began with the Southern California Independent Booksellers Association several years ago as a tribute to longtime bookstore owner and friend, Glenn Goldman. Goldman was the owner of the iconic bookstore, Book Soup which he founded in 1975 on Sunset Boulevard. Book Soup was long known as the “bookseller to the great and infamous” and Goldman’s legacy can still be felt in the store today. Glenn Goldman was a loyal friend, savvy businessman, and passionate bookseller.


The Glenn Goldman Scholarship, now managed by CALIBA, is a tribute to Goldman’s memory and offers the opportunity for booksellers from throughout California to attend conferences near and far to expand their bookselling knowledge and enrich their lives.

Opportunities to apply for the Glenn Goldman Scholarship, will be posted here as they are available.
