Our board is comprised of WNBA members from across the United States. WNBA National board members are passionate about books, literary pursuits, advocacy, and education.
We believe that we must do our best to support the book world and to advance diversity and inclusivity in the literary world.
All of our board members volunteer their time to help create programs and events that entertain, educate, and serve our communities.
We do have opportunities available on some of our committees and some open positions are not listed below, so if you are interested in serving on the board, please contact us at info [at] wnba-books.org.
If you’d like to get involved with your local chapter’s board, please contact that chapter for more information.
