Thursday

9:00 AM – 4:00 PM Bookseller School – What’s New & Next On-line & On-the-Shelf?

9 AM - Noon - Edelweiss Workshop with Mark Evans, Above the Treeline
Edelweiss is an on-line interactive publisher catalog service that enhances or replaces the use of traditional hard copy publisher catalogs.  With features such as keyword search, interior images, twitter and blog tracking, title tags, and others, Edelweiss goes far beyond simple posted PDF’s to provide a buying and research tool that cannot be matched with hard copy catalogs.  Edelweiss is free to retailers and other catalog readers, requires no Above the Treeline affiliation, and interfaces with most bookstore POS systems. 
This session will be a hands-on workshop focused on how frontline booksellers and buyers can use Edelweiss to review the new titles coming out this season and use notes and tags to communicate with each other. Instead of passing around the one hard copy catalog your store might have for each publisher, you can review the catalogs at the same time as others in your store and create lists of your favorites for others to see. Participating publishers for this upcoming season include HarperCollins, Penguin, Random House children’s, Hachette, Disney, Workman, Ingram Publisher Services, Diamond Books, Tyndale, Thomas Nelson, Cambridge University Press, Columbia University Press, Georgetown University Press and Microsoft Press.

About Fiction Addiction:
We opened for business 8 years ago as a used-only bookstore, but now do over 50% of our sales from new books. We use the Visual Anthology inventory control system and would be happy to answer questions about it or walk prospective booksellers through its features. We are often complimented on our store shelving, the majority of which was built by my dad, Jim McFarlane, and he’s always willing to share his plans with those interested. Our big project for the year has been launching the ticketed author event program, Book Your Lunch (http://www.bookyourlunch.com), which I will be speaking about at SIBA in a Friday morning panel. 

Directions to Fiction Addiction:
Take 385 South to the Roper Mountain Road exit. Turn right onto Roper Mountain. At the large intersection with Woodruff Rd (just after Strossner’s & Jeff Lynch), turn left. We will be on your right before you get to the first traffic light. If you miss the driveway, turn right at the traffic light and park at Krystal hamburgers and walk on over.

7:00 PM Until… First Ever SIBATweetUp @ Fitzpatrick’s
Gonna' be in Greenville on Thursday, September 24th, for the SIBA Trade Show?  Come to Fitzpatrick's at 7PM to kick off both the Show and your shoes!  What a great way to get the SIBA Party started.  Be there or be square!  The Open Book is just around the corner and they are open until 9PM, so feel free to stop by and visit the store.  Fitzpatrick’s is located at 1565 Laurens Rd. and The Open Book can be found at 110 S Pleasantburg Dr.  This event is Dutch even tho’ the bar is Irish!

Day of Education sponsored by Random House

9:45 AM – 10:45 AM – Building Productive and Profitable Programming Partnerships with your Local Public Libraries ABC – Room 104 A *Canceled due to death in the family

Libraries and bookstores share many common goals: to provide a community center for the exchange of ideas, to connect readers to great books, to encourage a love of reading for all ages, and to inspire people with great authors and programs. Yet often bookstores and libraries miss the opportunity to work together to their mutual benefit because they stumble over their differences rather than build on their common goals. This program will cover practical strategies for initiating a productive institutional relationship, including how to define a shared community mission, and how to develop sustainable joint programming. Participants will get practical event ideas, marketing techniques, and solutions to some of the most common roadblocks.  Presented in conjunction with The Association of Booksellers for Children (ABC), and The Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), a division of The American Library Association (ALA).

Aimed at booksellers of all levels who are interested in selling children's books.
In today's challenging bookselling climate, it is critical to find and keep your edge over your competition.

But what if we told you that there is a cost-effective tool available to you that costs very little and will reap huge returns?

This workshop will explore the definition of "Thought Leadership" in relation to current trends in New Economy Marketing and why it should be central to any children's marketing plan.
