Thank you Volunteers! For decades, a handful of major companies dictated who could publish books and who could not. Then came the computer revolution. Practically overnight, thousands of creative individuals came bursting onto the publishing scene. They are now writing and selling books that could never have been produced just a few short years before. CIPA, we're proud to say, is one of the leaders in this new publishing revolution with a membership of 300+ aspiring and established authors and related professionals. These professionals join CIPA to learn more about the world of publishing through monthly meetings, special events, the Signature newsletter, CIPA College, EVVY Awards, our web site, and networking opportunities. CIPA members have published hundreds of books which have won regional and national awards and CIPA College is one of the nation's premiere independent publishing events every spring. Those who get the most from their CIPA membership are those who put the most in. Join with those who MAKE IT HAPPEN, contact the person in charge, and let them know that you would like to join with them in their efforts to better serve Colorado independent publishers.
