The Library Marketplace: Exhibits, Stages & Resources
The Library Marketplace: Exhibits, Stages & Resources
The Library Marketplace will be open to everyone, Friday, January 22 through Monday, January 25. But we're excited to launch Midwinter Virtual with a full day of all things Exhibits, Stages & Resources on Friday, January 22! That's right, you can visit the Library Marketplace before the full conference kicks off.
Participate in the day's offerings, which include a morning 'Coffee Talk' with an author; exhibitor education sessions; presentations from notable authors; more than 100 exhibitor booths; and an end-of-day Happy Hour—perfect for networking and catching up with friends.
For a list of sessions and activities, visit The Library Marketplace on the Program Scheduler.
