About Us

Our Story

New Millennium Books sprouted from humble beginnings on a college campus in Lansing, MI, in 2014. We recognized a crucial gap in the literary world – a lack of representation for underserved communities. This realization sparked our journey to become more than just a bookseller; we became a catalyst for change in the world of literature.

Our Mission

At New Millennium Book Distributor, we’re on a mission to nurture young minds and enrich lives through the power of diverse literature. In addition to “growing young minds through reading,” we strive to:

  • Provide information, adventure, and education to underserved youth and adults
  • Showcase stories and heroes that reflect the diversity of our readers
  • Expose children and adults to both everyday and extraordinary experiences
  • Offer knowledge and educational resources to everyone
  • Highlight African American literature and the African Diaspora worldwide
  • Celebrate stories and adventures from cultures across the globe

What Sets Us Apart

Community Focus: We’re not just an online bookstore but a community hub. Our pop-up events, particularly at Eastern Market in downtown Detroit, allow us to connect directly with our readers.

Curated Selection: Our passionate team carefully selects each book, ensuring a diverse range of titles that cater to all ages and backgrounds.

Representation Matters: We specialize in books that feature characters and authors from underrepresented communities, allowing readers to see themselves reflected in literature.

Flexible Approach: While maintaining a strong online presence, our pop-up events and unique seasonal offerings allow us to meet our community where they are.

Our Commitment

Diverse Genres: From everyday life experiences to extraordinary adventures, we offer a wide range of genres to suit every reader’s taste

Educational Focus: We’re committed to providing educational resources that enrich minds and broaden perspectives.

Seasonal Engagement: From June to October, we are at Eastern Market in Detroit on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 AM to 4 PM. We also host special events during the winter season.
