Each fall, the regional independent bookseller associations hold their annual trade shows. The American Booksellers Association exhibits at each show and typically presents one or more educational sessions that are open to all attendees. Booksellers register for the trade show directly with the regional association.

For 2019, ABA will offer a new education session, with the topic to be announced soon; watch Bookselling This Week for details.
