Libro.fm’s 2025 Year in Review
In 2025, we fortified our mission to help more people read while supporting their independent bookshop.
And because of your support, we paid our bookshop partners 80% more in 2025 than the prior year!
What else did your support enable us to do?
We became a Certified B Corp.
“As audiobook sales continue to grow, with sales in the U.S. increasing 50% over the past five years, major tech companies like Audible and Spotify are reaping the benefits. But when you choose Libro.fm, you can trust that you’re not just buying an audiobook, but directly supporting a business that cares about your community.”
