[4]The American Booksellers Association is inviting all booksellers attending Winter Institute 13 [5] to take part in an open discussion about industry and association issues at a Town Hall Meeting [6] from 10:40 a.m. to 11:40 a.m. on Wednesday, January 24.

No other programming is planned during the Town Hall so that all ABA members can attend. The meeting will take place in Ballroom C&D at the Memphis Cook Convention Center.

The discussion will be facilitated by ABA President Robert Sindelar of Third Place Books [7] in Lake Forest Park, Washington, and Vice President Jamie Fiocco of Flyleaf Books [8] in Chapel Hill, North Carolina; the entire ABA Board [9] will also be in attendance.

During the meeting, the floor will be open to questions and comments from all booksellers in attendance; however, anyone who would like to send questions in advance can e-mail [email protected] [10].

The 2018 Winter Institute will be held January 22–25 at the Sheraton Memphis Downtown Hotel and the Memphis Cook Convention Center in Memphis. See the full program here [11].
