BookExpo Brings Back Bestsellers Grant Program for Indie Booksellers

Booksellers are invited to apply now for the 2020 BookExpo Bestsellers Grant Program, which is designed to make it possible for indie booksellers to experience and benefit from all that BookExpo has to offer. All bookstore members of the American Booksellers Association are eligible to apply.

This year’s grant program offers the selected booksellers a complimentary three-night stay at the Wyndham New Yorker and $150 in BookExpo Bucks, which can be used toward placing orders with any of the 100+ UnBound exhibitors at the show.

BookExpo will be held May 27–29 at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York City.

Booksellers can register for BookExpo 2020 now. To receive a free badge to the show, booksellers at ABA member stores will need to provide an ABA member number during the BookExpo registration process. Booksellers who don’t know their ABA member ID number should send a request with their name, title, and store name to [email protected] or call (800) 637-0037, ext. 7536.
