Fall Trade Shows and Education

2025 Regional Events

Beginning at the end of summer, regional independent bookseller associations hold their annual events. The ABA CEO and COO attend, as do staff from ABA’s Education and Membership departments. ABA’s CFO and CCO also attend, depending on availability. ABA will be exhibiting at the trade shows; attending board meetings, annual meetings, and town halls when possible; presenting education; and visiting stores. We look forward to seeing you there!
