The American Booksellers Association hosts two conferences each year, known as Institutes. Institutes typically last several days and consist of tours of several independent bookstores in the host city, education sessions, author signings, and networking opportunities. Winter Institute lasts four days and is typically held in late January of early February. It is the larger of the two events, with more 1,000 people in attendance in 2024. Children's Institute is a three day long event, typically held in the summer, with education and sessions geared towards booksellers who carry children's books.

Independent Bookstore Day, celebrated the last Saturday in April, is a celebration of independent bookstores. The American Booksellers Association organizes this annual celebration, creates assets and resources for booksellers to use, and coordinates with publishers to create exclusive items booksellers can sell for this event. Independent Bookstore Day was introduced in 2015, following the success of a regional California Bookstore Day. Though it started as a collaboration of the regional associations, Independent Bookstore Day was eventually handed over to ABA to organize.

In November, 2010, the Association of Booksellers for Children (ABC), a non profit trade association supporting the business of independent children's bookselling, agreed to merge with the American Booksellers Association. The former ABC is now a membership group within the ABA.
