American Booksellers for Free Expression

American Booksellers for Free Expression (ABFE) is the free speech initiative of the American Booksellers Association (ABA). ABFE is a non-profit organization whose mission is to protect and promote free expression in the United States. ABFE advises individuals who oppose book challenges and bans nationally and in local communities across the country. ABFE provides resources and education on the importance of free expression to booksellers, politicians, the press, and the public.

The current director of ABFE is David Grogan, who took over the role in 2018. The previous director was Chris Finan, current director of the National Coalition Against Censorship (NCAC).

ABFE was founded in 1990 as the American Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression (ABFFE). As of 1 January 2015, the ABFFE merged with the ABA and became ABFE.
