The Heartland Fall Forum

This year our annual trade show the Heartland Fall Forum will be at the Westin Lombard (a suburb of Chicago) on October 11th-13th.  Since this show covers bookstores in 13 states, our greatest need is for donations for scholarships for our far-flung booksellers who may not be able to afford to travel long distances without some financial help.  Individual scholarships are $400.  Of course, there are many way to support this show.  Check out this page​ which will give much more detail about our sponsorship packages.
