ATTENDEE TESTIMONIALS
“
Attending the US Book Show was one of the highlights of my year. Beyond the excellent programming, what stood out most was the opportunity to connect with so many people across the publishing industry in one place."
“
The U.S. Book Show was a fantastic forum for meeting and interacting with book professionals. The range of panel topics was hard to choose from, but I learned something new in every discussion I attended. I can't wait to attend next year."

The publishing world is changing quickly, and the US Book Show is a great way to stay up on everything. The sessions were relevant, the speakers knew their subjects, and I met people I may never have crossed paths with otherwise. This is definitely a must-attend annual event."
“
Well safe to say last week was a smash! I've had so many conversations since the Book Show; it was so great to be in person again like that! I'd love to be involved in programming and/or sponsoring next year."

An inspiring industry reunion, the U.S. Book Show was a jam-packed day of learning and networking. Panels were insightful, speakers and attendees were engaging, and the day flew by. I hope all publishing industry professionals, no matter the stage of their career, have the opportunity to attend. It's a can't-miss event!"

The sessions were informative and practical, providing ideas that attendees could apply immediately.”
“
The US Book Show 2024 was one of the best in-person, NYC-based conferences I have attended in years. The panels assembled by PW combined 'state-of-the-industry' topics, as well as professional development master classes that helped publishing professionals better understand key segments of a book's life cycle from acquisitions and rights to P&L's to production and distribution. The parallel sessions provided a lot to choose from, to the point where one had to fear of missing out when having to pick between great sessions after each break. I plan on bringing a larger contingent from Westchester to nest year's event, so we can all grow and learn more about our industry."

“
It was wonderful to connect with new and former colleagues in real life! I felt energized by the chance to see people in person for the first time in a while, and to focus on how I might do my work better while learning about how others work, especially in other departments. It was a day well spent, to say the least!"
