2025 Portland Book Festival Audiobook
Portland Book Festival (PBF) is an annual, city-wide event celebrating literature, authors, and a culture of reading, organized by Literary Arts in downtown Portland, Oregon. The one-day festival offers thousands of attendees a range of author talks, writing workshops, pop-up readings, and a large book fair with local vendors to venues like the Portland Art Museum and South Park Blocks for a day of literary discovery.
About Libro.FM:
Libro.fm encourages more people to read while supporting local, independent bookstores.
Libro.fm began as a conversation among friends at Third Place Books, a local bookstore in Seattle, Washington, about the growing popularity of audiobooks and the lack of a way for readers to purchase them from independent bookstores. Flash forward, and Libro.fm was founded in 2014. The team then spent nearly two years speaking with booksellers about their needs and suggestions, while also building our catalog of audiobooks and developing our platform, including iOS and Android apps. Today, Libro.fm partners with more than 4,000 bookstores around the world to sell audiobooks and has members in 90 countries and counting.
How it works:
Libro.fm shares profits from your audiobook purchases with your chosen bookstore, giving you the power to keep money within your local economy. We’re proud to be a Social Purpose Corporation, Certified B Corp™, and 100% employee-owned.
