Our approach
Book Fair Services
Book fairs give authors and publishers a way to present a title in a shared, in-person setting. Turnpage Global handles your participation—from the book display to supporting publicity—with an approach built around your goals.
01Why exhibit at a book fair?
A fair or exhibition puts your book in front of readers and publishing professionals in person, with the chance to talk about your work and learn from other authors.
- Present a title at a book display
- Introduce your book and author brand to visitors
- Meet readers and publishing professionals
02What participation includes
Book fair participation brings together several elements, confirmed for your selected exhibit before you commit.
- A display slot at a selected exhibit
- A listing in the Combined Book Exhibit catalog or database, where applicable
- A pre-event online press release
- Book signings at selected exhibits
03Choose an approach that fits
Start with what you want from the event: a physical display, an opportunity to meet readers, or added visibility around your participation. We match those priorities to the right fair or exhibition.
- Add an in-person signing to your plans
- Ask which catalog or publicity elements are available
- Exhibit at national and international fairs
- Confirm the selected exhibit and its participation details
04Plan for meaningful conversations
A fair works best as part of a broader effort to introduce your book. We help you prepare a clear description of the title and its readers, and plan the conversations you want to have.
- Define the book’s subject and target readership
- Prepare a concise introduction to your work
- Identify questions you would like to ask readers or industry peers
