What We Do: Combined Book Exhibit is a book marketing resource that allows you to have your books promoted at trade shows and book fairs across the country and the world for just a small entrance fee and no need for you to travel. But there's more to it than just that - for more, see http://www.combinedbook.com/whatwedo_67_1.html
Quality On-site Exhibit Services for Book Publishers -- Book exhibits are more a way of life than a job for those of us here at ABE. We are a second generation, family-owned company in operation since the mid '60s with consistent management of over 2,500 exhibits. Few, if any, have been in this business longer. No one, in our humble opinion, does it better. Your satisfaction is guaranteed with every exhibit or we make it right.
Libraries often choose books by the application of a collection development policy designed to meet the needs of a particular user community. Many libraries and reviewers do not clearly distinguish between vanity publications and self-publications.
