PEN America stands at the intersection of literature and human rights to protect open expression in the United States and worldwide. We champion the freedom to write, recognizing the power of the word to transform the world. Our mission is to unite writers and their allies to celebrate creative expression and defend the liberties that make it possible. PEN America is the largest of more than 100 centers of PEN International. For more than 90 years, we have been working together with our colleagues in the international PEN community to ensure that people everywhere have the freedom to create literature, to convey information and ideas, to express their views, and to make it possible for everyone to access the views, ideas, and literatures of others. In doing so, we are building on a tradition begun in the years following World War I and carried forward by thousands of American writers. Our strength is our membership—a nationwide community of novelists, journalists, editors, poets, essayists, playwrights, publishers, translators, agents, and other professionals, and an even larger network of devoted readers and supporters who join with them to carry out PEN America's mission.

We believe that discovering, buying, marketing, and selling books online should always be an easy, joyful experience. We lean into two key concepts – expert curation and unmatched value – to build innovative products and tools that get the right books into the right hands. Our teams at BookBub and Chirp have helped the publishing industry drive hundreds of millions of dollars in ebook and audiobook sales worldwide – and every day, millions of readers turn to us for help finding books they’ll love.
