Friday, January 24, 2014 9:00 AM to 10:15 AM EST
During breakfast, each of the Wi9 small and independent press sponsors will make a brief presentation about their company and highlight key upcoming titles. And in addition this year the breakfast will include a special Q&A discussion with the groundbreaking scholar and writer Ray Oldenburg, whose books—including The Great Good Place: Cafes, Coffee Shops, Bookstores, Bars, Hair Salons, and Other Hangouts at the Heart of a Community (Da Capo)—led the way in making clear how independent bookstores and similar "great good places" are the heart of our communities' social vitality and the grassroots of democracy. Mr. Oldenburg will be interviewed by Ron Sher, creator and owner of Third Place Books.
 
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from these industry innovators. Watch for a list of the small and independent press sponsors in upcoming editions of Bookselling This Week.
