Over eleven hundred FAME members are expected to attend. These folks are dedicated to the improvement of education through the effective use of books, media, technology and learning resources -- elementary through post-secondary. These are the school librarians, kindergarten through college. "The FAME annual exhibit provides a forum for media specialists and other educators to be introduced to new and existing products and services," MyLinda adds. "The goal of FAME is to promote and publicize the library media specialistıs role in Florida. . . .FAME is an efficient, effective, and influential organization that cooperates and collaborates with related professional groups." This yearıs FAME show theme is "Intellectual fREADom". The FPA booth at FAME will feature a great selection of books (always face out) and other products (digital media, videos, audio tapes, and sidelines such as plush toys, apparel and other logo or character items), drawings for a door prize, and free giveaways, as recommended by FAME organizers. FPA also prepares a packet of flyers on displayed titles to hand out to show attendees. To have your book or catalog shown in the FPA booth at FAME, simply follow the directions below and supply your materials in a timely manner.
