American Library Association's Annual Conference

May 22, 2016 by Val Sherer

IBPA
The American Library Association’s Annual Conference (ALA)  on June 24-27, 2016 in Orlando, Florida is the premier event for libraries in the United States. Displaying your book(s) in IBPA’s Cooperative Booth at ALA will help put you in front of the library marketplace.

In addition to the single-title display options, you are now able to order your own shelf!
Click here to register for either!

IBPA has again secured a favorable location on the ALA show floor in 2016. If you’d like to reach the library market, this is one show you don’t want to miss. This is a great show for most IBPA members’ titles. Public, academic, foreign and corporate librarians attend this show annually and it’s the largest librarian show in the nation.

OrlandoIf your books belong in libraries, let us help you get them in front of this very important audience. Register now!

Special note: Use coupon code IBPA30 to receive a $30 discount off your IBPA membership when you renew along with your ALA registration. 

To give you a sense of the display, here are a couple photos from previous years, including a well attended author signing!
