Perhaps the experience of a Library of Social Science Book Exhibit is best captured in photographs. When one of our onsite book exhibit managers returns from an exhibit with photos, the LSS staff is astonished. Did we create all that? The emails we’ve written and calls we’ve made to publishers has resulted in an astonishing collection of titles from the most significant scholarly and professional publishers.
To provide a feeling for LSS Book Exhibits, we have selected a potpourri of scenes from recent conferences. One cannot help be impressed—not only with the size of our exhibits and scope of titles that we present—but with the beauty of our displays, which enhance and enrich the conference experience.
