Texas Library Association Conference Wrap Up
Regional Tradeshow, Houston, Texas
SAN JOSE, California - April 30, 2012 - Fox Hunt Publishing Group extends thanks today to the 2012 Texas Library Association Conference attendees during the April 17th through 20th conference.
Combined Book Exhibits, having exhibited at TXLA so long, they always have a prime exhibit location and this year was no exception. Their booths were situated near one of the two entrances to the exhibits. This entrance was the one where the shuttle buses dropped off the librarians as they made their trek from the hotels to the convention center.
Attendance was fabulous once again this year with over 7,100 librarians attending. As with other years, the majority of the attendees are school librarians who are from institutions throughout the state and deal with the K-12 levels. However, do not think that public librarians are missing. Several thousand public librarians make the trek to this annual conference each year.
This mixture is very good for our participating publishers, like ourselves, especially the books from the self published authors. You are able to present your title to a combined market all at one show. Monies in Texas, as is in all states, have been restricted over the past years but there is still money that is being freely spent on books by both school and public librarians throughout the state.
The librarians in Texas are always upbeat and very friendly. They know how to find a way to make it work no matter how times are. These librarians always seem to get most of what they want.
Most exhibitors were pleased with the traffic throughout the conference. The opening reception on Tuesday night was very well attended. The next two days had steady and strong traffic throughout the exhibit hours. Friday is much slower for most exhibitors except for those companies selling or giving away their books.
The 2013 show will be held in Fort Worth from April 23-26.
