Straightforward Guide to Funding Featured in LibraryBub Selection for December

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Small Business Administration rightly explains, "It costs money to start a business. Funding your business is one of the first — and most important — financial choices most business owners make. How you choose to fund your business could affect how you structure and run your business." In his book, The Funding Framework, author Vijay Rajendran sets out clearly the steps involved in securing startup funding." Experienced CEO Carl Grant III admires the book's "clear, structured approach" which "makes navigating the fundraising process feel less intimidating". He can see how the book's real-world examples and straightforward advice could "help entrepreneurs take charge of their funding journey, no matter their experience level."

LibraryBub is an industry first. Established in 2015, it works in conjunction with all major libraries. It is dedicated to making strong, mutual connections between indie and small-press authors and an extensive network of libraries. The core commitment of the LibraryBub service is to help librarians to identify acclaimed books from the independent publishing sector. LibraryBub introduces thousands of librarians to bestselling and award-winning books from the independent publishing sector. These books hold immense potential for enhancing the lives of their readers. Novelist Catherine Airey recalls, "As a child, I went to the library every week and maxed out my sisters' cards as well as my own… I'm really grateful that I was free to choose what I wanted to read. I can still remember some of my favourite books I got from the library as a child – River Boy by Tim Bowler and Dr. Franklin's Island by Ann Halam." Librarians enable writers to make that kind of difference to people's lives, and LibraryBub CEO Alinka Rutkowska considers it a privilege to support them in that role.
