Displaying your books at book expos is an effective way
to get your books before the public, librarians, radio
and tv producers, licensing agents, etc.
There is a cost
involved in displaying your books at these events,
hence, you may want to consider hiring publishing
organizations such as the Independent
Book Publishers Association (IBPA)
and The
Combined Book Exhibit
to display your book for you at a cost that is far
less than what it would cost you if you did it
yourself.

booksellers who attend; libraries and school systems;
foreign publishers; producers and other members of the
media.
