- by Noel Griese
Buyers took strong advantage of the more than 50,000 book titles offered for
sale by vendors attending the three-day Spring Book Show at Atlanta’s Cobb
Galleria Centre on March 6-8. Vendors were surprised by unusually robust
sales and heavy attendance despite the struggling economy.

So Where was Books Are Fun?
Many
of the attendees of the Spring Book Show asked us that very question. The
answer: they are very sorry that they were not able to attend the Spring
show but they have been busy sorting though a significant integration
process.

The 2008 Spring Book Show Success Story
Due to the storm damage to
Atlanta's Georgia World Congress Center, the
2008
Spring Book Show moved to the
Hilton Atlanta, which also happened to be the host hotel for the event;
so everything was under one roof.
There were eighty-five exhibitors at the 2008 show, and hundreds of
attendees made their way to the Hilton Atlanta to look over the product and
make the deals that will increase their profit margins and attract new
customers.
Many attended the Friday night reception in the Hilton's Crystal
Ballroom, enjoying the food and music. Still more took advantage of
the educational and writers seminars held Friday and Saturday.
