PW
Winter Institute
In less than a decade the American Booksellers Association's Winter Institute
has arguably become the second-most important bookseller gathering in the U.S.,
after BookExpo America.
For booksellers who find the BEA in New York City too
far away, too expensive, or both, Winter Institute is tops. Part of the reason
this conference has so rapidly become key is its intense focus on the business
of selling books, coupled with its deliberately limited attendance – 500
booksellers max.
When booksellers arrive at Wi9 – the ninth annual conference –
there will be no rights stands or publishers' booths, just a galley room,
consultation stations, authors eager to make bookstore connections, and several
days of workshops and panels focused on the nuts-and-bolts of bookselling. more 
A
Complete List of Children's Books and Authors at Wi9 Both Winter Institute first-timers and regulars know how frustrating it can be to make sure that you pick up all of the finished books and galleys you wanted to bring back for the staff, and make connections with the authors you want to meet. To help, PW has compiled a list of the children's titles being given away at this year's conference, along with the buzz about why specific authors are coming to the conference. more
