Supporting independent publishing and community.

Your annual support helps us continue our mission

Berrett-Koehler Publishers is an award-winning innovative publishing company. Since 1992 we have been discovering and amplifying the voices of authors who drive positive change through books that connect people and ideas to create a world that works for all. BK extends its impact through deep partnerships with two nonprofit organizations—the Berrett-Koehler Foundation and BK Authors, Inc.—that together form a powerful global community dedicated to shared values and a common social mission.

 

This membership program will help Berrett-Koehler Publishers thrive financially, broaden and deepen our global community, spread our mission, and diversify our revenues for a sustainable future.
