Welcome to the Exhibitor Engagement Portal
To further promote your authors/illustrators and organization, ALA offers contracted exhibitors the opportunity to participate in several engagement programs, most of which are located right on the exhibit floor. These programs include the Library Marketplace Stage and Book Buzz Sessions, Meet the Authors and Author Autographing Area, as well as the Now Showing @ ALA Film Program, and Podcast Recording Booth. Refer to the Exhibitor Engagement Submission Guide for specifics on each program’s pricing, submission details and deadlines. You must be a contracted exhibitor or part of an ALA Unit to participate.
Proposals are reviewed by Show Management and must be submitted by the deadlines noted below. Submit early to have the best chance at getting accepted with preferred date/time.
