October 22-24, 2017 Sheraton Burlington Hotel 870 Williston Road South Burlington, VT 05403
We love librarians! And they love indie publishers. This is one of our favorite book shows - and it shows! Join us in South Burlington, Vermont this year for what everyone expects to be another dynamic NELA conference!
Since librarians delight in finding uncommon and regional books to meet their patrons' needs, they tend to be attracted to small presses.
The New England Library Association show is the one show where you'll find the most regional librarians, staff, and trustees gathered together in one place. They're especially interested in books from New England authors and publishers and books with other connections to our region as well as general titles.
