Black Lives Matter. Black Books Matter.

We embrace our responsibility to share content that educates about racism and anti-racism, and we are committed to amplifying Black voices—the voices of authors, narrators, booksellers, influencers, and beyond.

This Friday is Juneteenth, a significant day in both Black history and the ongoing fight to end racial injustice. To honor and celebrate Juneteenth, we are going to highlight our Black-owned bookstore partners on 6/19.

When customers purchase or gift any audiobook—or start a new 2-for-1 membership (paying $14.99 and receiving 2 audiobooks up front)—on June 19th, 100% of their payments will be shared equally between all Black-owned bookstore partners.

Libro.fm will also be paying your bookstore the normal earnings for all purchases and memberships on June 19th. For example:

  • A customer buys How to Be an Antiracist for $28.00 on June 19th. Your bookstore will get the standard $4.20 for the sale (15%) AND $28.00 will go to a pool to be shared amongst Libro.fm black-owned bookstores.

  • A customer starts a 2-for-1 membership for $14.99. Your bookstore will get the standard $1.49 (10%) for the initial month AND $14.99 will go to a pool to be shared amongst Libro.fm black-owned bookstores. Each month thereafter, you’ll continue to receive 10% of the monthly payment.

You can learn more about our Juneteenth plans in this blog post, and you can find all the assets for Juneteenth in the bookseller hub. Feel free to share these antiracist playlists or build your own via your bookstore dashboard. We encourage you to amplify Black voices on Friday and every day.

If you have ideas, questions, or know of a Black-owned bookstore that isn’t listed here, please email us at bookstores@libro.fm.
