ATLANTA, GA, January 10, 2008
The Spring Book Show 2008, the South's largest bargain
book show, comes to Atlanta's World Congress Center on
March 28-30, and the show is shaping up to be a
book-buying blowout.
According to Larry May of Knoxville, Tenn., the show
organizer, vendors wanting table space will be out of
luck if they don't act quickly. Of 560 total tables
available to vendors at the Georgia World Congress
Center in downtown Atlanta, only 10 tables as of Jan. 7
remained unsold for the show, which is expected to be a
sellout.
Participating book dealers will be offering more than
50,000 book titles to buyers from chain and independent
bookstores; specialty retailers; public and academic
libraries; church book stores; department stores; and
school media specialists.
The show is timed to allow booksellers an opportunity to
stock up for the summer selling season, which is
characterized by vacations and beach reading.
A gathering to permit vendors and buyers to socialize is
planned for the evening of March 28.
May said the largest remainder dealers from the United
States, Canada and Great Britain will be attending the
Atlanta show, where they'll be able to buy stock for as
much as 80 to 90 percent off suggested retail price.
Vendors will display their wares - the largest
collection of remainder books, returns, white sales and
promotional books in the nation - at 560 display units
in over 70,000 square feet of space.
