Building Stories Beyond Our Shelves
At The Maple Staple, we believe that stories don’t just live in books: they thrive in the hands, hearts and hopes of people. That’s why our partnerships extend beyond the world of publishing and into the heart of our communities.
From supporting literacy and mental-wellness programs to nurturing faith, education and sustainability, each partnership is a shared chapter in our story, one rooted in compassion, creativity, and connection.
Our Community Partnerships
We’re honoured to collaborate with inspiring organisations such as:
Here, our affiliate publisher Bookside Press will sponsor one or two children to attend school, while The Maple Staple will sponsor one child ourselves, believing deeply that every story deserves the chance to begin with learning.
We’ve donated Bibles to bring light, hope and the gift of God’s Word into community spaces.
The many community partners receiving our book-donations:
Each of these helps ensure that books, stories and knowledge reach environments where they can truly uplift lives.
Through our partner-publisher Bookside Press, we’ve grown our storytelling ecosystem: publishing, distributing, and celebrating voices, all while giving back through community book-drives, educational sponsorship and faith-based generosity.
Our Affiliations
We believe that a strong reading community is built not only through books, but through the networks that support them. Our affiliations reflect our commitment to learning, advocacy, and the shared future of independent bookselling.
Through our connection with the ABA, we join an international community of booksellers dedicated to nurturing literary culture, promoting diverse storytelling, and elevating the work of independent bookshops across North America.
Our membership with CFIB reinforces our commitment to sustainable growth and responsible entrepreneurship. As part of a network of independent businesses, we gain tools, representation, and advocacy that allow us to better serve our readers and communities.
These affiliations help us stay connected, informed, and empowered, ensuring that every chapter of The Maple Staple’s journey is part of something larger, collaborative, and hopeful.
Being part of such associations supports our commitment to excellence, learning, and the broader future of reading. Every partnership and affiliation is a promise: to nurture minds, uplift spirits, and leave a lasting mark through the simple, transformative act of reading.
If you or your organisation would like to be part of this journey, we’d love to hear from you.
Let’s turn the page—together.
