The Green Book Alliance is an alliance between the Book Industry Study Group (BISG), Book Industry Communication (BIC), and BookNet Canada (BNC) committed to improving sustainability in the book publishing supply chain.

Given the global nature of environmental stewardship and the book publishing industry, it makes sense to collaborate on green initiatives. GBA aims to be a leader and global facilitator in this endeavor.

Founded in September of 2020, all three organizations welcome support from other international bodies that may be interested in contributing. The international GBA grows its agenda in concert with its members and national book communities.
