All ABA members are encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting from 3:15 pm to 4:15 pm, which will feature a report from the Board of Directors and executive staff on the association’s activities over the past year, as well as updates on new and ongoing initiatives. The Annual Meeting is preceded by the Town Hall, from 2:15 pm to 3:15 pm. The Town Hall provides booksellers with the opportunity to express opinions and share ideas with the Board and staff in a less formal setting than the Annual Meeting. To provide an opportunity for as many members as possible to speak during the Town Hall, a sign-up sheet will be displayed in the ABA Member Lounge.
The ABA Member Lounge will be closed during both the Town Hall and Annual Meeting, and will re-open at 4:15 pm until 6 pm.
