2012 New York Library Association

Show Date: Nov 7-Nov 10, 2012
Registration & Display Copy Deadline: Monday, Oct 22, 2012
Location: Saratoga Springs, NY

There are almost 800 individual library branches in New York State, which is one of the most populous states in the union, so New York State is obviously ambitious in regards to libraries and the library community. Each year over 1,300 members of the New York Library Association gather together for their annual trade show, which peaks in Saratoga Springs, where the 2012 conference will be held. Each conference sees conversation and research inside the exhibit hall for how to best allocated the (reported) near $1.9 billion they spend on materials and resources. While this number is staggering, it has a lot of ground to cover, and a lot of the decisions on how it's covered are made at the annual trade show.

Testimonials
Even through Random House, Inc. is very big, the staff of the Library Marketing Department is relatively small -- and our show budget is not unlimited -- so what to do about representation at those important state shows that we can't attend in person??   Combined Book Exhibit to the rescue!   
For over 15 years Random House, Inc. has relied upon CBE to represent us at from 8 - 10 shows per year all around the country.  Their staff is knowledgeable, conscientious, pleasant and they always get their attractive booth up right on time.  No worries with CBE.
And two additional points -- when we do show up unexpectedly at one of these state shows, the CBE booth is a place to hang our hats, host an unexpected author, visit with collection development browsers.
So on behalf of all the Random House, Inc. imprints and our Client Publishers, thanks for a job very well done indeed!
