The American Library Association is the largest and most encompassing group representing and lobbying for the national library industry. ALA Midwinter has 8-12 thousand making up an attendance that includes library staff of all levels from across the country and the spectrum of librarians (public, private, school, research, etc). A reported 82% of the attendance of the show play a role in the purchase of books alone! While almost half of the attendees of ALA Midwinter represent institutions with over $5 million in operating expenses, the opportunity is huge. With the additional exposure that CBE's seniority granting us a great location, your  titles will appear front and center for this very influential audience-and audience. ALA’s home city is Chicago, and it sets attendance records each year they host their annual meeting there. This is the first attempt at hosting Midwinter in Chicago, but expectations are high!
